How to Get Anticipatory Bail

  Anticipatory bail is a powerful tool to protect against unjustified police arrests and cases filed against ordinary citizens. Criminal law categorizes offenses into two types: bailable and non-bailable. In bailable offenses, an accused can obtain bail as a matter of right, whereas, in non-bailable offenses, bail is granted only at the discretion of the court. In non-bailable offenses, the police often arrest the accused and place them in judicial custody for up to 14 days. Despite several established legal principles discouraging unwarranted incarceration, the police sometimes adhere to traditional methods of detention. Anticipatory bail , or pre-arrest bail, is available to individuals who are named as accused in non-bailable offenses. Under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanghita (BNSS), any person who has reason to believe they may be arrested on a non-bailable charge can apply to the High Court or the Court of Session for anticipatory bail. The court may direct...
