¶13

The instant bail application has been filed under Section 483 of BNSS, on behalf of the petitioner, who has been arrested in connection with FIR No.56/2025 registered at Police Station Vishvakarma, District Jaipur City (West) for the offence punishable under Section 309(4) of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (in short, ‘BNS’), 2023. Investigation is being conducted for the offences punishable under Sections 309(4) and 112(2) of BNS, 2023.

¶14

It is contended by learned counsel for the petitioner that the accused-petitioner has falsely been implicated in this case. It is submitted that alleged offences are triable by Magistrate. Counsel submits that petitioner has been made accused in this case solely on the basis of the fact that other cases have been registered against him. It is argued that other co-accused persons have

[CRLMB-4749/2025]

(2 of 3)

already been granted benefit of bail by learned trial court. It is contended that trial will take considerable time in its conclusion. Counsel contends that petitioner is in custody since his date of arrest and further custody of the petitioner would not serve any fruitful purpose.

¶19

Learned Public Prosecutor opposes the submissions made by counsel for the petitioner and submits that petitioner is a habitual offender as 28 other cases have been registered against him. 4. I have considered the contentions.

¶20

Having regard to the totality of the facts and circumstances of the case; considering the arguments advanced by learned counsel for the petitioner, especially considering the fact that alleged offences are triable by Magistrate, as also considering the fact that other co-accused persons have already been granted benefit of bail by learned trial court and trial will take considerable time in its conclusion as well as looking to the custody period, but without commenting anything on the merits/demerits of the case, I deem it proper to allow this bail application.

¶21

This bail application is accordingly allowed and it is directed that accused-petitioner - Sohil Alias Balla S/o Shree Rafiq, shall be released on bail provided, he shall furnish a personal bond in the sum of Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty Thousand Only) together with two sureties in the sum of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand Only) each to the satisfaction of the learned Trial Court with the stipulation that he shall appear before that Court and any court to which the matter is transferred, on all subsequent dates of hearing and as and when called upon to do so.

[2025:RJ-JP:31823]

[CRLMB-4749/2025]

(3 of 3)

It is made clear that the accused-petitioner shall not involve in any other offence(s) during currency of the bail and he shall mark his presence every week in the concerned police station, till trial is concluded.

¶26

Concerned SHO is directed to maintain a register recording the attendance of the petitioner. In case the petitioner fails to mark his presence in the concerned police station, the concerned SHO is directed to immediately report the matter to the concerned Court in this regard.

¶27

Office is directed to send a copy of this order to the concerned SHO for necessary compliance.

¶28

If any breach of these conditions is reported or come to the notice of the Court, the same shall alone be a reason for the trial court to cancel the bail granted to him by this Court.

¶29

The observations made hereinabove are only for decision of the instant bail application and would not have any impact on the trial of the case in any manner.
