JUSTICE SANDEEP TANEJA
Order 27/02/2026
1. This bail application has been filed on behalf of the accused- petitioner under Section 483 of BNSS in connection with FIR No. 78/1981 registered at Police Station Rajakheda, District Dholpur for the offences under Sections 147, 148, 149, 307, 399, 402 of IPC.
2.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in this case and he has nothing to do with the alleged offences. Learned counsel further submits the petitioner is a senior citizen aged 65 years and allegation made against him pertains to his involvement in robbery and attack on the police officials. Learned counsel also submits that in the present matter, FIR was registered in 1981 and the petitioner has been arrested on 09.10.2025 i.e., almost after 45 years of the registration of FIR.
3.
Learned counsel further contends that the petitioner has no other criminal antecedent; he is in custody since 09.10.2025 and
(2 of 2) [CRLMB-15341/2025] no recovery is required to be made from him. He also submits that charge-sheet has been filed in the matter and trial will take considerably long time in its conclusion, so no fruitful purpose would be served by keeping the petitioner in custody and therefore, prays that the petitioner may be granted the benefit of bail under Section 483 of BNSS.
4. Per contra, learned Public Prosecutor vehemently opposes the submissions made by learned counsel for the petitioner hereinabove.
5. Having regard to the totality of the facts and circumstances of the case; considering the arguments advanced by learned counsel for the parties, as also the fact that the petitioner is 65 years old, the charge-sheet has already been filed in the matter and trial will take considerably long time in its conclusion, without commenting anything on the merits / demerits of the case, this Court deems it just and proper to enlarge the petitioner on bail.
6. Therefore, this bail application under Section 483 BNSS is allowed and the accused-petitioner Sarnam Singh S/o Nihal Singh @ Nahne is ordered to be released on bail, provided he furnishes a personal bond in the sum of Rs. 1,00,000/- with two sureties of Rs. 50,000/- each to the satisfaction of the 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.
