Bail Lawyer in Delhi – Regular and Statutory Bail Under BNSS

Advocate Tarun Lal, through BLJ Legal, provides legal representation in post-arrest bail matters for individuals who have already been arrested or are in custody. The practice is confined to regular bail and statutory/default bail under the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (BNSS), and is conducted before District Courts in Delhi and the Delhi High Court.

Bail after arrest is the primary legal safeguard available to prevent unnecessary or prolonged detention. Legal representation focuses on statutory compliance, judicial discretion, and proportionality of custody in accordance with BNSS, 2023.

Legal Representation for Bail After Arrest in Delhi

Bail proceedings after arrest require timely and structured legal intervention. Courts assess not only the allegations but also the necessity of continued detention, legality of arrest and remand, and proportionality of custody.

Legal assistance is provided at all post-arrest stages, including:

Police custody and judicial custody
Investigation and filing of charge-sheet
Pendency of trial
Appellate proceedings after conviction

Bail Under the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023

Under BNSS, bail operates as a safeguard against unnecessary deprivation of personal liberty while ensuring the accused remains available for investigation and trial. Judicial discretion is exercised in light of statutory provisions, constitutional principles, and binding precedents.

Detention is not intended to be punitive at the pre-trial stage. Where continued custody is not justified on legally sustainable grounds, courts are empowered to grant bail subject to appropriate conditions.

Nature and Scope of Bail Representation

Regular Bail After Arrest

Regular bail is sought after arrest when the accused is produced before the Magistrate or Sessions Court. Applications are assessed on the basis of custody requirements, stage of investigation, and judicial parameters governing liberty.

Statutory / Default Bail

Statutory (default) bail arises when the investigating agency fails to complete investigation and file the charge-sheet within the prescribed statutory period. Upon fulfilment of legal conditions, the accused acquires an enforceable right to bail.

Interim Bail

Interim bail may be granted pending final consideration of a regular bail application, particularly in situations involving urgency or humanitarian considerations.

Bail Pending Trial

Where trials are prolonged and continued incarceration becomes disproportionate, bail may be sought on the ground of delay and limited role attributed to the accused.

Suspension of Sentence and Bail After Conviction

Following conviction, bail may be granted during pendency of appeal where continued incarceration is not required for the ends of justice.

Judicial Considerations for Grant of Bail

Courts in Delhi typically consider the following while deciding bail applications:

Nature and gravity of the alleged offence
Legality of arrest and remand
Requirement of custodial interrogation
Duration of custody already undergone
Criminal antecedents, if any
Possibility of misuse of liberty
Parity with co-accused

Even in non-bailable offences, bail may be granted where facts and circumstances justify release.

Scope of Bail Representation

This page is confined to legal remedies relating to bail after arrest, including regular bail, statutory/default bail, interim bail, and bail pending trial or appeal.

Anticipatory bail, being a distinct pre-arrest remedy governed by a separate statutory framework, is assessed and advised independently based on the facts, stage of proceedings, and jurisdiction involved. Guidance on such pre-arrest remedies is available under the firm’s anticipatory bail practice.

Frequently Asked Questions on Bail After Arrest

Can bail be sought immediately after arrest?

Yes. Depending on the offence and custody stage, bail may be sought at the first production before the court.

What is statutory or default bail?

It is bail granted when the investigating agency fails to file the charge-sheet within the prescribed statutory period.

Does grant of bail conclude the criminal proceedings?

No. Bail only ensures release from custody and does not decide the merits of the case.

Can bail conditions be modified or relaxed?

Courts may modify or relax bail conditions upon sufficient cause being shown.
