investigation and trial will take time. With these submissions, learned counsel for the petitioner prayed that the benefit of bail may be granted to the petitioner.

¶19

Per contra, learned Public Prosecutor has opposed the bail application of the accused-petitioner and stated that bribe amount has been recovered from the poly bag and the same is recovered from the accused-petitioner.

¶20

Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, particularly looking to the facts that offences are triable by the First Class Magistrate; the custody period of the accusedpetitioner; further investigation and trial will take sufficiently long time, therefore, without expressing any opinion on the merits/demerits of the case, this Court is of the opinion that the bail application filed by the petitioner deserves to be accepted.

¶21

Consequently, the bail application is allowed. It is ordered that the accused-petitioner, Sita Ram Yadav S/o Shri Ramnarayan Yadav, arrested in connection with F.I.R. No.11/2022, Police Station ACB CPS, Jaipur Chowki, Pali-II, shall be released on bail, if not wanted in any other case; provided he furnishes a personal bond of Rs.50,000/- with two surety bonds of Rs.25,000/- each to the satisfaction of the learned trial court with the stipulation to appear before that Court on all dates of hearing and as and when called upon to do so.
