https://lawtimesjournal.in/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/bombay-hc-1.png1200628A three-judge at Nagpur bench of the Bombay High Court (HC) has held that a convict is not entitled to the benefit of section 436A of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) under which under trials are entitled to bail on undergoing detention of up to half of the maximum sentence prescribed for the offences charged against them. This provision deals with release of undertrial prisoners on bail during the investigation period on completion of half of the maximum jail sentence.
