Economic & Political WeeklySummary: The recent judicial practices incorporating digitally mediated bail conditions reflect an emerging shift in how liberty is structured within criminal procedure. The growing reliance on surveillance-oriented conditions on bail suggests that release is no longer defined solely by freedom from physical custody but by compliance with technologically structured supervision. These developments call for closer scrutiny of how surveillance logics reshape the freedom of those awaiting trial without altering the formal doctrine of release.-Reproduced
