Regular Bail Petition

A regular bail application is filed under Section 437 (before Magistrate) or Section 439 (before Sessions/High Court) of the CrPC. The primary focus of the petition must be to establish that the accused will not flee, will not tamper with evidence, and that their further custody is not required for investigation.
