the case will take sufficiently long time, therefore, the benefit of bail should be granted to the accused-petitioner.

No.141/2022, registered at Police Station Phalodi, District Jodhpur Rural, shall be released on bail, if not wanted in any other case, provided he furnishes a personal bond of Rs.1,00,000/- and two sureties of Rs.50,000/- each, to the satisfaction of learned trial court, for his appearance before that court on each & every date of hearing and whenever called upon to do so till completion of the trial.
