CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR SINHA ORAL ORDER

¶12

2 13-04-2022 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State.

The petitioner seeks regular bail in connection with Sessions Trial No. 307 of 2021, arising out of Beldaur Police Station Case No. 89 of 2019, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 395/412/34 of the Indian Penal Code.

¶14

This is the second attempt on behalf of the petitioner for grant of regular bail. Earlier, the prayer for regular bail of the petitioner was rejected by this Court, vide order, dated 22.03.2021, passed in Criminal Misc. No. 40064 of 2020.

¶15

The prosecution case, as per the First Information Report, is that three accused persons surrounded a Bolero Pickup Van bearing Registration No. WB-23E-9070 and took

away the same along with Rs. 10,000/-, mobile phones, 125 Plastic Carats and some documents from the informant on the gun point after assaulting the helper of the said vehicle.

¶18

Learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has not committed any offence in the manner alleged and he has falsely been implicated in this case with oblique motive. He further submits that no incriminating and/or looted article has been recovered from the conscious possession of the petitioner. He further submits that similarly situated co-accused persons, namely, Lalchand Kumar and Rahul Kumar, have been granted bail by co-ordinate Benches of this Court. He further submits that the petitioner is in custody since 28.02.2020 and charge sheet has been submitted against him and as such there is no likelihood that the petitioner will abscond and/or tamper with the evidence.

¶19

After having heard learned Counsel for the parties and taking into consideration the fact that this is second attempt for regular bail on behalf of the petitioner, similarly situated coaccused persons have been granted bail by this Court, charge sheet has already been submitted and the petitioner is in custody since 28.02.2020, I am inclined to grant regular bail to the petitioner.
