Bail is the rule, not the exception, especially when there is no incriminating evidence and the accused has significant medical issues.
The right to a speedy trial is essential; bail should not be denied as punishment.
Gravity alone cannot be a decisive ground to deny bail, rather competing factors are required to be balanced by court while exercising its discretion.
