Abandon security and barge head-down into custody (4,4)

I believe the answer is:

jump bail

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'barge head-down into custody' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'abandon security' is the wordplay.
'abandon' becomes 'jump' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'security' becomes 'bail' (I've seen this before).
'jump'+'bail'='JUMP BAIL'

'and' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for jump bail that I've seen is " Abscond from court appearance".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
