It is contended by learned counsel for the petitioner that petitioner has falsely been implicated in this case. Learned counsel contends that petitioner is a private person and is not holding any post of public servant. It is contended that there is allegation against the petitioner that he received bribe amount of Rs.30,000/- on behalf of co-accused who has been granted benefit of bail by this Court. Learned counsel submits that there are no criminal antecedents against the petitioner and trial will take considerable time in its conclusion. Counsel submits that petitioner is in custody
[2025:RJ-JP:36043] (2 of 2) [CRLMB-11422/2025] since 06.08.2025 and further custody of the petitioner would not serve any fruitful purpose. 3. Per contra, learned Public Prosecutor opposes the prayer of bail made by learned counsel for the petitioner. 4. Heard. Perused the material available on record. 5. Having regard to the totality of the facts and circumstances; considering the arguments advanced by learned counsel for the petitioner, especially considering the fact that co-accused has been granted benefit of bail by this Court, so also the fact that there are no criminal antecedents against the petitioner and trial will take considerable time in its conclusion as well as looking to the custody period, but without expressing any opinion on merits/demerits of this case, I deem it proper to allow the bail application. 6.
6. This bail application is accordingly allowed and it is directed that accused-petitioner - Ajay S/o Ashok, shall be released on bail provided he 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 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. 7. The observations made hereinabove are only for decision of the instant bail application and would not have any impact on the trial of the case in any manner. (ANIL KUMAR UPMAN),J CHARU SONI /259
