If a Magistrate refused bail in Bailable case A PROCEDURES UNKNOWN TO LAW, should the Accused break the Police station-Jail etc or Successive bail petition before the same Magistrate? or file petition under 437 or 439 to the higher Court?

Assumi,
In bailable offences bail has to be offered by the magistreate but in case of refusal of bail one has to move to the higer court under section 439. Sec 437 is meant for Non-bailable cases before the magistrat/commutal court.Breaking of Jail or police stations will put the person in another criminal case.So it is not at all advisable to take the law into own hads. Further I would like to clarfy you that sucessive bail petion before same magistrate with new grounds in changing circustansces has no bar.

Assumi, Ramdas answered the question. Still why you are breaking the jail. You are a lawyer I suppose not from Chennai HC.

I think the query is imaginery one. No Magistrate with sense will ever deny bail for an bailable offence.

He should go to superior court. it is true that in baailable cases bail may be claimed as of right, but there may be exceptions where it may be refused. can one say that in non bailable cases, grant of bail is unknown to Law?
N.K.Assumi (Advocate) 12 March 2009
In Bailable Offence bail is a matter of right not a discreation of the Court. Refusal can lead to suit for compensation.

nO ONE IS ABOVE LAW.If the magistrate refuses bail in bailable cases better you move the district court under section 439 Cr.P.C Some few days back our apex court has given a judgement that granting bail in bailable cases is a must.Refer that judgement also.
