Understanding Bail in Criminal Cases – A Complete Guide by Advocate Vikram Panwar

Getting arrested or even fearing arrest can be an overwhelming experience. However, the Indian legal system provides a crucial safeguard known as bail—a legal relief that ensures your liberty while the case is ongoing.

Advocate Vikram Panwar, a practicing criminal lawyer in Charkhi Dadri and Bhiwani, explains the importance of understanding bail and its types:

  1. Anticipatory Bail: Filed under Section 438 of the CrPC, it protects individuals from arrest in anticipation of being accused in a non-bailable offence.

  2. Regular Bail: Granted after arrest, allowing the accused to be released from custody during trial.

  3. Interim Bail: A temporary relief till a decision is made on the regular or anticipatory bail application.

In bail proceedings, the court considers factors like the nature of the offence, likelihood of tampering with evidence, and cooperation with the investigation. A well-drafted bail application and effective argumentation can make a decisive difference.

With decades of legal experience and a legacy of practice since 1965, Advocate Vikram Panwar is known for his strategic bail advocacy, ensuring justice and liberty for his clients.

Key Tip: Always consult a criminal law expert immediately after an FIR or arrest to safeguard your rights effectively.
