Per contra, learned Public Prosecutor opposed the bail application and stated that earlier, 6 other cases have been registered against the accused-petitioner.

¶17

Having regard to the facts and circumstances of this case, particularly to the facts that offence is triable by the Magistrate; charge-sheet has been filed and trial of the case 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.

No.358/2021 of Rajnagar Police Station, District Rajsamand, shall be released on bail, if not wanted in any other case, provided he furnishes a personal bond of ₹50,000/(Rupees Fifty Thousand) and two sureties of 25,000/- (Rupees₹ Twenty Five Thousand) each to the satisfaction of the learned trial Court for his appearance before that Court on each and every date of hearing and whenever called upon to do so till the completion of the trial.
