Learned counsel for the appellants while relying upon grounds of appeal submitted that appellants are innocent persons and they were falsely implicated in the present case. He further referred the material on record and submitted that the learned trial court has ignored the material contradictions and discrepancies while recording conviction against these appellants. He further submitted that the appellants accused were convicted for charges under the bailable offence and due to ignorance of trial court lawyer the appellants accused were not able to file application for suspension under Section 430(3) of BNSS which resulted into unnecessary incarceration of these appellants. He further submitted that these appellants were on bail during trial and disposal of appeal will take its own time. He also referred cross case and submitted that the cross case was relating to offence under Section 302 IPC. 3. Aforesaid contentions were opposed by learned Public Prosecutor and learned counsel for complainant. Learned counsel for complainant has submitted that there are criminal antecedents against the appellants. Learned Public Prosecutor has submitted
[2025:RJ-JP:25107] (3 of 4) [SOSA-1246/2025] report received form Police Station Malarna Dungar, District Sawai Madhopur, and custody certificate and same are taken on record. 4. Heard learned counsel for parties and learned Public Prosecutor. Perused the record. 5. On the basis of report, Ex.P-3 filed by PW-5 Hasif @ Abdul Aasif, FIR No. 386/2020 was registered at P.S. Malarna Dungar, District Sawai Madhopur wherein after investigation, police has filed charge-sheet against six persons. After framing charge, prosecution has examined 17 witnesses and exhibited 13 documents. The accused was examined under Section 313 Cr.P.C. but they have not submitted any defence evidence but exhibited 27 documents in defence. These appellants were convicted under Sections 148, 341, 323/149, 325/149 IPC. The maximum sentence awarded to appellant is 4 years. 6. These appellants were on bail during trial and there was a cross case of 302 IPC. At this stage, it is not possible for us to express any opinion on merits of the case, but looking to the facts and circumstances of the case, and having considered the grounds as raised herein, it is a fit case to enlarge appellants on bail. 7. Therefore, without expressing any opinion on merits, I am of considered view that it is a fit case wherein appellants can be enlarged on bail.
