Police and Chief Public Prosecutor are duty bound to report to court if some accused is violating conditions of bail. But that is not being done. In India, criminal law depends too much on people to come forward to complain at take risks to their life in doing so. If criminal is released on bail on some conditions, and if he violates condition, unless someone comes and files application for cancellation of bail, the court is helpless. The complainants are mostly victims who cannot come to complain without increasing risk on them. An independent authority is needed to move such applications.

Concurrent and Consecutive Punishments
Know when punishments run concurrently and when it runs consecutively. if a criminal beats a victim and then rapes her, the punishment for 3 years for beating and for rape for 10 years will be concurrent. So ultimately criminal will suffer 10 years only. But if he beats victim in the morning and then rapes her in evening, these two crimes will be treated separately. Punishment will be consecutive. He will have to suffer 10 years + 3 years total 13 years.
