Theft is an offence which is under non-bailable section.However if the Magistrate court would not enlarge bail then his lawyer can approach u/sec.439 Cr.P.C.in District Court or High Court for granting bail.If the accused is subject to torture by the Police then his lawyer can file a Writ Petition in High Court for over action of the Police authority.His family member can also lodge a complaint to the Human Right commission

I think your query is not correct. You should first of all move an application to get the accused medically examined from a board and then should file a criminal complaint against all erring officials who used criminal force against such accused and injured while he was under their custody. This action shall definitely make all possibilities easy for such person as desired.
