BNSS Section 528 | Cash Security Deposited as Bail Condition Must Be Refunded Post-Acquittal: Jharkhand HC
Jharkhand High Court holds that under Section 528 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, cash security deposited as a bail condition must be mandatorily refunded upon acquittal. The ruling quashes lower court orders denying refunds, reinforcing the legal right to restitution of bail amounts post-acquittal for accused persons.
