Bail under the PMLA may be considered more liberally where the accused's alleged role is limited, corroborative material is lacking, and the proviso to the bail threshold is implicated. The note records that a functional association with an organisation, without evidence linking the accused to specific money-laundering acts, or reliance on email identifiers and saved contacts alone, is not enough to refuse bail at the pre-trial stage.
