One can get bail depending upon the nature of the crime. The court will decide whether a person can be granted bail or not. Unlike in normal cases, under AFSPA the police can detain a person for a longer duration. The normal rule of producing a person before a magistrate within 24 hours does not apply in the case of AFSPA.
