GA Mr. Manraj, Additional S.P. SOG HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE NARENDRA SINGH DHADDHA
Order 06/08/2025 The present 4th bail application has been filed under Section 483 of B.N.S.S. in connection with FIR No. 13/2022 registered at Special Police Station, A.T.S. and S.O.G. for the offences under Sections 420 & 120-B IPC and Sections 3 & 10 of Rajasthan Public Examination (Measures for Prevention of Unfair Means) Act, 2022 (later on offence under Sections 420 & 120-B IPC and Sections 3, 4 & 5/10 of Rajasthan Public Examination (Measures for Prevention of Unfair Means) Act, 2022.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in this case. He is behind the bars since 03.05.2022. Charge-sheet has been filed against the petitioner. Learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that co-accused- Shalu Sharma has been enlarged on bail by the
[2025:RJ-JP:30131] (2 of 3) [CRLMB-9312/2025] Hon'ble Apex Court in Special Leave to Appeal (Crl.) No. 6641/2025 vide order dated 04.07.2025.
Learned counsel further submits that there is no evidence against the petitioner that petitioner was keeping vigil near the strong room. Learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that out of 46 witnesses, statements of 30 witnesses have been recorded by the trial Court. Conclusion of trial will take long time. So, the petitioner be enlarged on bail. Learned Dy. G. A. has opposed the arguments advanced by
learned counsel for the petitioner and submitted that as per the CCTV footage, petitioner was present and keeping vigil at the time when lock of the strong room was broken by Choturam @ Mohan. Forged invigilator card of co-accused Choturam which was prepared in the name of Mohan Lal was recovered from the house of the petitioner. So, looking to the gravity of offence, the 4th bail application filed by the petitioner be dismissed. I have considered the arguments advanced by learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned counsel for the Dy.G.A. As per the CCTV footage, petitioner was keeping vigil near the strong room when co-accused Choturam @ Mohan had broken the lock of the strong room and took the examination papers. Petitioner had also prepared the forged invigilator card of co- accused Choturam in the name of Mohan Lal, which was recovered from the petitioner’s house. So, the petitioner was involved in the conspiracy for taking the examination papers from the strong room before exams. He had played with the future of the students. Co-accused Shalu is a woman, so her case is
[2025:RJ-JP:30131] (3 of 3) [CRLMB-9312/2025] distinguished than the petitioner’s case. Looking to the gravity of offence and nature of allegation, I do not consider it a fit case to enlarge the petitioner on bail. Consequently, this Criminal Miscellaneous 4th Bail Application is dismissed.
