If, on an inquiry under section 116, it is not proved that it is necessary
for keeping the peace or maintaining good behaviour, as the case may be, that
the person in respect of whom the inquiry is made, should execute a bond, the
Magistrate shall make an entry on the record to that effect, and if such person
is in custody only for the purposes of the inquiry, shall release him, or, if
such person is not in custody, shall discharge him.
