Pre-conviction detention must not be punitive: bail in GST prosecution serves to secure the accused's attendance at trial while preserving the presumption of innocence and personal liberty under Article 21. Where investigation is complete, the prosecution relies mainly on documentary, electronic and statement evidence, and trial is unlikely to conclude within a reasonable time, continued custody requires exceptional justification.
