The first proviso to Section 436(1) of the CrPC (Amendment Act, 2005) specifically mentions the type of people who must be released on a personal bond without surety. If a person truly is impoverished, this amendment requires the court or the police officer to release him on his own surety.
The court can determine if the accused is able to give surety by using the explanation as the key. if he is unable to provide surety for a week following his arrest, that may be a sign that he is impoverished. If the individual who was thusly freed fails to appear in court, he could be penalised with up to a year in jail or a fine or with both under Section 229A IPC inserted in 2006.
