Muhammad Aslam VS State Ss. 91 & 351---Word "may" used in S.91 of the Cr.P.C.---Scope---Said word when read in the light of S.351 of the Cr.P.C. makes it clear that if the Court deems appropriate it can commit the accused to custody for the purpose of trial. Citation Name: 2024 PCrLJ 977 LAHORE-HIGH-COURT-LAHORE Muhammad Aslam VS State Ss. 91, 351 & 344---Summoning of accused by Trial Court to face trial----Ensuring future appearance before the Court----Requirement----Court may require the accused to furnish a bond with or without sureties for his future appearance before the Court during trial or commit him to custody as per S.351 of the Cr.P.C. if evidence is available against the accused---Such detention shall then be regulated under S.344 of the Cr.P.C., in order to remand him to custody from time to time and at an appropriate stage his request for bail under S.497, Cr.P.C. can be entertained---When a bond is taken under S. 91 of Cr.P.C. question of bail does not arise because "bail is only for continued appearance of a person and not to prevent him from committing certain acts".
