No. There is no such law or ruling. Neither police can provide You are right. In non bailable offences, police can no release the accused and similarly courts are not bound to accept the bail in such cases.riven

sir,
In my case police released on bail the accused of 26 Forest act. After charge sheet court is going to refuse his bail on the ground of being non bailable.
I am arguing that once he is on bail from I.O. and appearing honestly in court, that's why she should be released on furnishing fresh bail bond. I am apprehended that my client may be put behind the bar in spite of being innocent. I have referred the Honble Allahabd HC's Ruling- RADHA DEVI V/S STATE U.P.- decided on 3 Sept 2001- in which HC held " SEC-437-Scope and applicability of- In course of investigation applicant released by I.O. on her furnishing personal bond- Hence magistrate should not ask her to apply for bail- At most she may be asked to furnish a fresh bail bond for her appearance on future dates".But court is not satisfied, though have given me a chance to appear in next date.
Sorry Sir I don't agree with you on the question that I.O. has no right to release on bail in non bailable offense. Please go through the words of Section 437(2)& (4) Cr.P.C.in which two words are "An officer or court".
Please sir you all are my seniors. I need your help to cope with this situation. My client is really innocent. He may be put in jail as being his offense non bailable. Please guide me. If there is any clear cut direction or Ruling of Apex court regarding this matter. Thanks for a helping hand.riven
