Provide security for criminal defendants detained by judicial organs and release them. In capitalist countries, bail must be applied by the defendant or his legal representative or guarantor, and a considerable amount of deposit must be paid. In China, people who should be arrested are found to be seriously ill, pregnant or breastfeeding their babies.
Or if the crime is minor, measures can be taken to obtain bail pending trial. The judicial organ will release the applicant and guarantor on bail pending trial and then release them. This bail measure embodies the humanitarian spirit of the revolution.

According to Longman Law Dictionary, bail refers to "the system of releasing the arrested person on the condition that the arrested person provides guarantee or accepts certain conditions". The bail system originated in Britain and was formed in the 3rd century. Pollock and Maitland believe that the bail system stems directly from actual needs, not from the love of abstract freedom.
After 500 years' slow development, the Criminal Justice Act promulgated by Britain 1826 fundamentally transformed the old bail system and made it a brand-new system. The British "1976 Bail Act" stipulates in Article 1 that:
(1) Bail may be granted during or in connection with the proceedings in which a person is accused or declared guilty.
(2) A criminal who has been arrested for a crime or is being issued with an arrest warrant may be granted bail [2]. The law tends to allow anyone who lives under surveillance to be released on bail. It is normal to grant bail, but there are very strict rules on not allowing bail.
