The instant bail application has been filed by the petitioner under Section 439 Cr.P.C. seeking regular bail in connection with the FIR No. 414/2022 registered at Police Station Anti Corruption Bureau, Headquarter Jaipur, Chowki Bundi for the offence punishable under Sections 7 of Prevention of Corruption (Amendment) Act, 2018.

¶12

Counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is innocent and he has been falsely implicated in this case. The accused-petitioner is behind the bars and the trial of the case will take sufficient long time to be concluded. Therefore, the benefit of bail should be granted to the accused-petitioner.

¶13

Learned Public Prosecutor has vehemently opposed the bail application.
