Section 45 of the PMLA imposes twin conditions for ordinary bail, but Article 21 requires a separate assessment where continued pre-trial custody risks becoming punitive because trial cannot conclude within a reasonable time. Constitutional bail depends on custody duration, trial progress and likely timetable, attribution of delay, evidence security, and risks of absconding or witness interference; no fixed custody period controls. Conditional release may protect trial integrity through passport surrender, attendance requirements, territorial limits and non-contact directions. Bail in the predicate offence, pending predicate proceedings and secured documentary material may support, but do not replace, the Section 45 assessment.
