One must move strategically with utmost caution and take steps keeping in mind whether an offense is a bailable offense or a non-bailable offense.
Getting a bail can be a tedious task when it comes to offenses such as Forgery, Murder, Rape, Dowry Death, kidnapping, criminal breach of trust, causing grievous hurt, attempt to murder, or half murder.
In case you apprehend an arrest for the cases cited above, immediately contact a good criminal lawyer, and apply for anticipatory bail. In cases where anticipatory bail can’t be granted, ask your criminal lawyer to seek interim protection. This shall help you seek bail in the future.
