(a) that any person accused of an offence and in custody be
released on bail, and if the offence is of the nature specified in
subsection (3) of section 437, may impose any condition
which it considers necessary for the purposes mentioned in
that sub- section;
(b) that any condition imposed by a Magistrate when releasing
an person on bail be set aside or modified: Provided that the
High Court or the Court of Session shall, before granting bail
to a person who is accused of an offence which is triable
exclusively by the Court of Session or which, though not so
triable, is punishable with imprisonment for life, give notice of
the application for bail to the Public Prosecutor unless it is,
for reasons to be recorded in writing, of opinion that it is not
practicable to give such notice.
(2) A High Court or Court of Session may direct that any person
who has been released on bail under this Chapter be arrested and
commit him to custody.
Section 109 of the Indian Penal Code
109. Punishment of abetment if the act abetted is committed in
consequence and where no express provision is made for its
punishment.—Whoever abets any offence shall, if the act abetted is
committed in consequence of the abetment, and no express
provision is made by this Code for the punishment of such abet-
ment, be punished with the punishment provided for the offence.
Explanation.—An act or offence is said to be committed in conse-
quence of abetment, when it is committed in consequence of the
instigation, or in pursuance of the conspiracy, or with the aid
which constitutes the abetment. Illustrations

(a) A offers a bribe to B, a public servant, as a reward for showing A
some favour in the exercise of B’s official functions. B accepts the
bribe. A has abetted the offence defined in section 161.
(b) A instigates B to give false evidence. B, in consequence of the
instigation, commits that offence. A is guilty of abetting that
offence, and is liable to the same punishment as B.
(c) A and B conspire to poison Z. A in pursuance of the conspiracy,
procures the poison and delivers it to B in order that he may
administer it to Z. B, in pursuance of the conspiracy, administers
the poison to Z in A’s absence and thereby causes Z’s death. Here B
is guilty of murder. A is guilty of abetting that offence by
conspiracy, and is liable to the punishment for murder.
CLASSIFICATION OF OFFENCE Punishment—Same as for offence
abetted—According as offence abetted is cognizable or non-
cognizable—According as offence abetted is bailable or non-bailable

a conspiracy, be punished in the same manner as if he had abetted
