Ratio / Principle

The bail applications were allowed and each of the ten named accused-petitioners was ordered to be released on bail, if not required in any other case, on furnishing a personal bond of Rs.50,000/- with two sureties of Rs.25,000/- each to the satisfaction of the learned Trial Court.

HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE VINOD KUMAR BHARWANI

Order

04/12/2025

The instant bail applications have been filed under Section 483 B.N.S.S. on behalf of accused-petitioners in the matter arising out of F.I.R. No.606/2025 registered at Police Station Kotwali Jhalawar, District Jhalawar for the offence(s) punishable under Section(s) 111(3), 111(4), 111(5), 111(6), 318(4), 316(2), 338, 336(3), 340(2) & 308(6) of B.N.S.

Learned counsel for the petitioners submit that the petitioners have been falsely implicated in the case, they have nothing to do with the alleged offence and they are behind the bars since 30.09.2025 & 01.10.2025 respectively. Trial of the case is likely to take a long time to conclude, till then, their further incarceration would not serve any fruitful purpose and they are ready and willing to furnish their bail bonds. Therefore, the bail applications deserve to be allowed.

Learned Public Prosecutor has vehemently opposed the bail applications.

Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the material made available on record.

Taking into consideration the submissions put forth and overall facts & circumstances of the case but without commenting upon detailed merits of the case, this Court deems it fit to enlarge the accused-petitioners on bail.
