It sets forth the rules and regulations concerning evidence in judicial and quasi-judicial proceedings in Pakistan.

Explanation

A warrant of arrest must be a written order addressed to police officers, duly signed and sealed by a Magistrate.

These conditions make the warrant legally valid and enforceable under the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC).

This is because it conclusively determines the rights of the parties regarding that suit.

Explanation

Section 497(1) CrPC provides that a person accused of a non-bailable offence and arrested or detained may be released on bail at the court’s discretion.

Granting of bail depends on the nature of offence and judicial satisfaction, not as a matter of right.
