What does Zamanat qabl az giraftari mean? ضمانت قبل از گرفتاری

Zamanat qabl az giraftari is pre-arrest bail — protection from arrest granted by a Court of Session or High Court before the accused is taken into custody.

It is generally sought under section 498 CrPC. Courts treat it as an extraordinary relief and usually first grant interim (ad-interim) pre-arrest bail, then decide confirmation after hearing the complainant and examining the record.

In a diary it is common to track two dates: the interim bail date and the confirmation (or recall) hearing.
