🤔- Wheather Bail is a right of a person ? . . 👍🏻- According to the provision of criminal procedure act 1973 , Bail is a fundamental right of every individual person. The purpose of granting bail is to protect the rights and liberties of the accused person until their trial concludes as it is a long process. In case of bailable offences bail may be granted immediately. But in the case of non-bailable offences bail is not granted immediately, as it depends on the discretion of the court, whether to grant bail or not. While granting bail in case of non-bailable offences, some factors must be taken into consideration. The given post is all about the detail explanation of bail and its related provision in CrPc 1973. . . . . . . . . . #law #criminallaw #advocate #barassociation #criminaljusticesystem #lawyers #attorney

Advocate and Solicitor | Defence Lawyer | Ex Senior Public Prosecutor CBI | LLM | UGC NET | Criminal Trial Practice
Second Default Bail Application: It’s almost 2 years, when we got default bail in one of high ticket CBI’s Official Secret Act case. In that case our first default bail application was dismissed by the court. After three days I again filed Second Default Bail application in the same court. Court after hearing arguments continuously for three days, granted default bail to our client. The best return for the relief is the blessing of the client family which can’t be quantify monetarily. Best part in that case, client as well as his family lost all hopes of release on bail and no lawyer had advised to get relief on this ground and out of unexpected moments moved first and second application of default bail in the same court and got bail. #bail#defaultbail#cbi#investigation#officialsecretact#Lawyer #Justice #advocate#criminal law#criminalprocedurecode#defence.

Ajmer 32-Year Scandal Verdict: Justice Delayed or System at Work? Some might argue that ongoing legal delays erode public trust. I believe that every delay in justice demands introspection within our legal framework. Here are some aspects to consider: - Our judiciary must ensure that delays don’t weaken the case or victimize survivors anew. - Transparency in the legal process can help maintain public confidence in the system. - Legal reforms are needed to expedite such cases without compromising on due process. What do you think? Has our legal system served justice or failed in its duty #AjmerVerdict #JusticeDelay #LegalSystem #Judiciary #Transparency #LegalReforms #PublicConfidence #DueProcess #JusticeDelayed #LegalDelays #Ajmer92 #rape #gangrape

(1) The main objective of the Juvenile Justice System Act, 2018 (“2018 Act”) is to modify and amend the law relating to the criminal justice system for juveniles, with a special focus on disposing of their cases through diversion and socially reintegrating with the ‘best interest of the child’ principle as a primary consideration (2) Since both ‘minor offence’ and ‘major offence are treated as bailable under Section 6(3) of the 2018 Act the ground of delay in the conclusion of the trial provided by Section 6(5) of the 2018 Act for grant of bail applies solely to juveniles detained for a ‘heinous offence’.

For day 11 of "Legal Term of the Day" challenge, let's discuss the term "Habeas Corpus." Definition: Habeas corpus is a legal principle that protects individuals' rights to challenge the legality of their detention or imprisonment. It allows a person to seek relief from unlawful confinement by bringing the case before a court and requiring the government or custodian to justify the detention. Usage in Context: For example, a person may file a writ of habeas corpus to challenge their arrest or detention if they believe it violates their constitutional rights, such as being held without a valid legal basis or without due process. #day11 #legalterm #30dayschallenge #shareyourthoughts #communityengagement #habeascorpus #law

📰 Today, I had the opportunity to discuss the sentencing of recent rioters in #England on GB News, particularly under Section 1 of the Public Order Act 1986. As a criminal defence #lawyer, I believe it’s crucial to understand the serious implications of this legislation. 👨⚖️ Section 1 deals with the offence of riot, where 12 or more individuals use or threaten unlawful violence, causing fear for personal safety. The sentences handed down in these cases reflect the severity of the crime, with potential for long-term 10 year imprisonments. ⏩ Swiftly addressing cases involving rioters is crucial for maintaining public confidence in the justice system and ensuring safety. Quick resolutions reinforce the rule of law, restore order, and demonstrate that the legal system effectively protects the community. ℹ While it’s important to maintain public order, we must also ensure that justice is administered fairly, with every defendant receiving a robust defence. As a lawyer, I am committed to upholding these principles and ensuring that the #law is applied justly. 🌐 You can view all Britton and Time Solicitors media appearances on the #Youtube channel at: https://lnkd.in/e_DHkbbY #Brittontime | #CriminalDefence | #PublicOrderAct | #GBNews | #Justice | #LegalExpertise | #UKLaw | #RiotSentencing
