Personal liberty governs bail assessment for economic offences punishable up to seven years: arrest and continued custody require compelling justification and cannot rest solely on the seriousness of alleged tax evasion. The text notes that courts should apply the triple test, including risks of absconding, influencing witnesses, or obstructing proceedings, while considering whether investigation can continue without incarceration.
