Regular bail under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act remained subject to the statutory twin conditions, which the petitioner did not attempt to satisfy. The High Court noted allegations that homebuyers' funds were diverted through group concerns, repeated evasion of summons and warrants, and an attempted flight on apprehension, supporting the assessment of flight risk.
