Yes, even after the FIR and statement, the accused can remain out on bail unless arrested. Arrest depends on the seriousness of the offence. For non-bailable offences, the police may arrest, but it is not automatic. You can request the police or magistrate for appropriate action if you fear threats or tampering.
