Your Legal Eye:
 
Do you know that despite the fact that all offences are bailable, a Court may refuse to grant bail if it is satisfied that the defendant may not appear to stand trial, or may interfere with a witness or the evidence, or in any way hamper police investigations; or may commit a further offence when on bail; or is charged with an offence punishable by imprisonment exceeding six months which is alleged to have been committed while defendant was on bail? Section 96(5) of Criminal and Other Offences (Procedure) Act 1960 (Act 30); Martin Kpebu vrs Attorney General, No. J1/13/2015.
