Q91: Section 45 of the PMLA imposes "Twin Conditions" for the grant of bail. In light of the Delhi High Court ruling (February 2026) and established precedents, which of the following statements accurately describe this legal standard?
The Court must be satisfied that there are reasonable grounds to believe the accused is not guilty of the offence.
The Court must be satisfied that the accused is not likely to commit any offence while on bail.
To satisfy these conditions, the Court must conduct a mini-trial and return a definitive, positive finding of innocence before granting bail.
The standard required is a "prima facie" view based on broad probabilities, maintaining a delicate balance rather than a final verdict.
