Non-applicant For Applicant : Ms. Seema Singh, Advocate. For Non-Applicant/State : Mr. S. S. Baghel, Dy. Govt. Advocate Hon'ble Mr. Ramesh Sinha, Chief Justice Order on Board 13.05.2025 1. This is the First bail application filed under Section 483 of the Bhartiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 for grant of bail to the applicant who has been arrested in connection with Crime No. 42/2025 registered at Police Station – Khamhardih, District – Raipur (C.G.), for the offence punishable under Sections 310(2), 331(5), 2 123, 351(2), 61(2) of the BNS and Sections 25 and 27 of the Arms Act. 2. The prosecution's case, in brief, is that the complainant has made complaint to the concerned police station alleging that on the date of incident some unknown persons entered in his house and looted cash amount of Rs. 66,25,000/-, three numbers of golden chain and three numbers of old mobile sets valuing Rs.66,00,000/- with the help of pistol and thereafter they ran away from the place of incident. Based upon such complaint, police has registered the offence under Section 310 (2), 331(5), 123, 351 (2), 61(2) of the Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita 2023 and Sections 25 and 27 of the Arms Act against the unknown persons and during investigation, the police has arrested the present applicant on the basis of memorandum of co-accused. Hence this bail application for applicant. 3. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant has been falsely implicated in this case and only on the basis of mere suspicion, the applicant has been implicated and arrested. She submits that no evidence has been found against the applicant regarding his involvement in the said loot. The present applicant is in jail since 14.02.2025 and it would be adversely affected the family and future of the applicant, therefore, she prays for grant of bail to the applicant. 4. On the other hand, learned State counsel opposes the bail application of the present applicant and submits that the applicant is not entitled for grant of bail. 3 5. I have heard learned counsel appearing for the parties and perused the case diary. 6. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, submissions of learned counsel for the parties, nature of dispute and material available in the case diary, and also considering the fact that the accused persons committed loot of cash more than Rs.66,00,000/- and also looted the golden ornaments and mobile sets valuing Rs. 66,00,000/-, this Court is of the opinion that it is not a fit case to enlarge the applicant on bail. 7. Accordingly, the first bail application of the applicant – Manuraj Mourya, involved in Crime No. 42/2025 registered at Police Station – Khamhardih, District – Raipur (C.G.), for the offence punishable under Sections 310(2), 331(5), 123, 351(2), 61(2) of the BNS and Sections 25 and 27 of the Arms Act is rejected. 8. Needless to say that the trial Court concerned is at liberty to proceed and conclude the trial expeditiously. 9. Office is directed to send a certified copy of this order to the trial Court concerned for necessary information and compliance forthwith. - SD/- (Ramesh Sinha) Chief Justice Jyoti
