Unless the crime with which the prisoner is charged is shown to be an offense punishable by death or life imprisonment under the laws of the demanding state, a judge or magistrate in the asylum state may admit the person arrested to bail by bond with sufficient sureties, and in such sum as the judge or magistrate deems proper, conditioned for the prisoner's appearance before the judge or magistrate at a time specified in such bond, and for the prisoner's surrender. In the event of a violation of the conditions of said bond, forfeiture thereof and recovery thereon may be had as in the case of appearance bonds given by accused persons in criminal proceedings in the asylum state.
