BAIL IS THE RULE, JAIL IS THE EXCEPTION-MYTH OR REALITY

In the judicial philosophy, there is a famous phrase that an accused is presumed innocent until proven guilty. During the trial, the accused is presumed innocent, and generally, the burden of proof lies with the prosecution to prove the accused person's guilt. This concept leads to the application of bail as a rule and an exception as a goal. Based on the type of offences, bail is considered a rule and is usually a right of the accused, while jail is considered an exception in several rare cases where stringent laws must be applied. This research work delves deep into the exceptions and the concept of bail as a rule, with an analysis of implementation in real aspects.
