a person of any of the offences specified in sub-section (2) or of abetting any such offence
and is of opinion that it is necessary to take security from such person for keeping the

a bond, with or without sureties, for keeping the peace for such period, not exceeding three
years, as it thinks fit.

section 195 thereof;
(b) any offence which consists of, or includes, assault or using criminal force or
committing mischief;
(c) any offence of criminal intimidation;
(d) any other offence which caused, or was intended or known to be likely to
cause, a breach of the peace.
(3) If the conviction is set aside on appeal or otherwise, the bond so executed shall
become void.
(4) An order under this section may also be made by an Appellate Court or by a Court
