Q: Can I take a loan on interest from a bank to pay off my friends debts in order to save him from going to jail?
A: Taking an interest bearing loan from the bank is haraam. Severe warnings have been sounded in the Mubaarak Ahaadith for the person who gets involved in the grave sin of interest. If you wish to assist him, then try to acquire an interest free loan to settle his debts.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
