(1) In the course of examining evidence, the court
may, irrespective of the stage of the proceedings of a case, and in the
light of the circumstances of the case, remand the accused in
detention pursuant to Section 67 or demand a bail/bond, guarantee or
bank guarantee from the accused pursuant to Section 68; and nothing
shall be deemed to prevent the court from remanding the accused in
detention or demanding a bail/bond, guarantee or bank guarantee
from the accused subsequently by the reason only that the accused
91
was not remanded in detention or that a bail/bond, guarantee or bank
guarantee was not taken from him or her earlier.
(2) If the court has any reasonable ground to prove that the
accused remanded in detention pursuant to Section 67 or 68 is not
guilty of the offence, the court may, irrespective of the stage of
proceedings of the case, hear such matter and order the release of
such accused from detention.
