Section 483 BNSS | Bail Granted for Magistrate-Triable Offence Despite 16 Prior Cases, With Monthly Police Reporting Condition : Rajasthan HC
The Rajasthan High Court granted bail to a petitioner with 16 prior criminal cases for a magistrate-triable offence under BNSS 2023, emphasizing that pre-trial detention cannot be indefinite when trial delays are likely. The condition of monthly police reporting balances public interest with the right to liberty, reinforcing Arnesh Kumar’s presumption of bail for non-violent, non-bailable offences.
