Which of the following can not be a ground to deny bail to a person, who is apparently a child in conflict with law?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer A
Under Section 12 of the JJ Act, 2015 bail may be refused only on the statutory grounds, namely "When there are reasonable grounds to believe that the child may come into association with known criminal if released on bail.", "That the person may be exposed to moral, physical or psychological danger." or "That the person released on bail would defeat the ends of justice."; the ground "When the offence alleged against such person is a heinous offence and the child has been ordered to be tried as an adult." is not one of them.
