(At Present Lodge At District Jail Beawar) ----Accused-Petitioner Versus State Of Rajasthan, Through P.P. ----Respondent Connected With S.B. Criminal Miscellaneous Bail Application No. 9427/2025 Ratanlal S/o Shri Udaylal, Aged About 39 Years, R/o Kharkhnda, Police Station Gangrar, District Chittorgarh (Raj.) (At Present Lodge At District Jail Beawar). ----Accused-Petitioner Versus State Of Rajasthan, Through PP ----Respondent For Petitioner(s) : Mr. Avinash Dhanju, Adv. For Respondent(s) : Mr. N.S. Dhakar, PP with Mr. Tapesh Agarwal, PP HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR UPMAN Order 29/07/2025 1. These bail applications have been filed under Section 483 of BNSS on behalf of the petitioners, who have been arrested in connection with FIR No.118/2025 registered at Police Station Saket Nagar, District Beawar for the offence punishable under Sections 8/15 of NDPS Act. After completion of investigation, police filed charge-sheet in this matter. [2025:RJ-JP:28770] (2 of 4) [CRLMB-4307/2025] 2. It is contended by learned counsel for the petitioners that the accused-petitioners have falsely been implicated in this case. Learned counsel submits that according to the prosecution case, petitioner-Gajendra Prajapat was found in possession of contraband poppy straw (7.410 kgs). He further submits that alleged recovered contraband is below commercial quantity. Learned counsel appearing for the accused-petitioner Ratanlal submits that no contraband has been recovered from possession of the petitioner. He has been made accused solely on the basis of interrogation of co-accused, who was found in possession of contraband. He argues that charge-sheet has already been filed and trial of the case will take considerable time in its conclusion. He argues that the petitioners are in custody since their date of arrest and further custody of the petitioners would not serve any fruitful purpose. 3. Learned Public Prosecutor opposes the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioners and submits that three criminal cases have been registered against accused-petitioner Gajendra Prajapat and one criminal case has been registered against accused-petitioner Ratanlal. They are habitual offenders and indulged in drug trafficking. 4. I have considered the contentions. 5. Having regard to the totality of the facts and circumstances of the case; considering the arguments advanced by learned counsel for the parties, especially the fact that alleged recovered contraband poppy straw is below commercial quantity; charge- sheet has been filed and trial will take time in its conclusion as [2025:RJ-JP:28770] (3 of 4) [CRLMB-4307/2025] well as looking to the period of custody, but without commenting anything on the merits/demerits of the case, I deem it proper to allow these bail applications. 6. These bail applications are accordingly allowed and it is directed that accused-petitioners – 1. Gajendra Prajapat S/o Shri Gulabchand Prajapat and 2. Ratanlal S/o Shri Udaylal shall be released on bail provided each of them furnishes 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 they 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. 7. It is made clear that the accused-petitioners shall not involve in any other offence(s) during currency of the bail and they shall mark their presence in first week of every month in the concerned police station, till trial is concluded. 8. Concerned SHO is directed to maintain a register recording the attendance of the petitioners, as directed above. In case the petitioners fail to mark their presence in the concerned police station, as directed above, the concerned SHO is directed to immediately report the matter to the concerned Court in this regard. 9. 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 [2025:RJ-JP:28770] (4 of 4) [CRLMB-4307/2025] Court to cancel the bail granted to them by this Court. 10. Office is directed to send a copy of this order to the concerned SHO for necessary compliance. 11. The observation made hereinabove is only for decision of these instant bail applications and would not have any impact on the trial of the case in any manner. (ANIL KUMAR UPMAN),J MADAN/S-294-295
