Chapter VIII - RECIPROCAL ARRANGEMENTS FOR ASSISTANCE IN CERTAIN MATTERS AND PROCEDURE FOR ATTACHMENT AND FORFEITURE OF PROPERTY (From Section 111 to Section 124)
Suspension of sentence pending appeal allows appellate courts to stay execution and grant bail to convicted appellants. Section 430 allows an Appellate Court to suspend execution of a sentence pending appeal and to release a convicted person on bail, on his own bond, or on a bail bond, subject to recorded reasons and, for serious offences, an opportunity for the Public Prosecutor to show cause against release; the Public Prosecutor may seek cancellation of bail. The High Court may exercise this power for subordinate appeals. A convicting court must release certain appellants on bail to enable presentation of an appeal, deeming the sentence suspended while so released, and any time on bail is excluded from later imprisonment calculations.
