Annotation de l'entreprise
This section, which sat in Chapter 1 (Ordinary Inquiry), has been repealed. In its former version it addressed the inquiry official's power to release the accused provisionally, with or without bail or security. Older Supreme Court decisions that refer to Section 136 apply that repealed text and should be read as concerning the former law in force at the time. The provisional-release regime is now found in the Code's provisions on bail and provisional release, so this entry is retained only to preserve the section's numbering and history.
Pourquoi cela est important en pratique
Because Section 136 is repealed, do not rely on it. If you need to understand the current rules on provisional release or bail for an accused during investigation, look to the Code's present bail provisions rather than this section, and take advice on any specific case. You can book a consultation with a Thai lawyer to confirm the rule that now applies.
Foire aux questions
Is Section 136 of the Thai Criminal Procedure Code still in force?
No. Section 136 has been repealed and no longer has effect. Older cases citing it apply the former text, and provisional release of an accused is now governed by the Code's current bail provisions.
