Bailable offense
When an offense is bailable, the accused has the option of being granted bail. It may be awarded by the court that has jurisdiction over the offense or by a police officer who is keeping custody of the accused. On completing a "bail bond," the accused may be freed on bail with or without providing sureties. The "Bail Bond" could have the following terms and conditions, for example-

Without the consent of the judge or the police officer, the accused is not allowed to leave the state's boundaries. Every time he is required to appear before the police officer, the Accused must do so. The police's inquiry does not permit the accused to in any way tamper with the evidence. Furthermore, if the individual granted bail violates the terms of the bail bond, the court has the authority to deny bail to the accused even though the offense is bailable.

Bailable offense examples include-

• Taking part in an Illegal Assembly
• Engaging in riots while carrying a lethal weapon
• When a public employee violates a legal order in order to harm another individual.
• If a person carries or wears a garb worn by a public official with the aim to defraud.
• If public official is caught accepting bribes.
• If someone is discovered to have made misleading claims regarding elections.
• If a public employee declines to take the oath when properly compelled to do so.
• If someone prevents a public employee from doing their job duties.
• If someone presents or creates fake evidence during any type of legal action.
• If a vendor or seller knows that the food or drink, they are selling is dangerous but yet markets it as such.
• If someone disturbs or bothers a group of people who are peacefully worshiping.


Non-Bailable offense
A non-bailable offense is one in which the accused must ask the court for permission to post bail; the court will then decide whether to do so depending on the circumstances and the evidence.

However, the court may normally deny the request for bail if the "Bail Bond" has not been properly fulfilled, if the crime was one that carries a death sentence or a life sentence, such as murder or rape, if the accused has tried to elude capture by hiding, or if his credentials are in question.

Before the Magistrate overseeing the trial, the bail application must be made. The application is typically listed the day after it is filed. The application will be heard on that day, and the police will also present the defendant in court. The magistrate has the authority to issue the directives he sees fit.
