In pursuance of order dated 04.03.2025, Investigating Officer of this case is present in person. Learned State Counsel places on record certified copy of injury report of the victim. 5. So far as accused-appellant Nos. 1 & 2 are concerned, this criminal appeal has been preferred being aggrieved of the order dated 26.09.2024 passed by learned Special Judge, SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Cases, Jhalawar (Raj) in Bail Application No.216/2024 rejecting the bail application preferred on behalf of the appellants, who are in custody in connection with FIR No.202/2024 registered at Police Station Gangdhar, District Jhalawar (Raj.) for the offences punishable under Sections 189(2), 126(2) & 109(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, (in short ‘BNS’) 2023 and Section 3(2)(v) of SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989 (Amendment 2015). Later on police filed charge-sheet in this matter for the offences punishable under Sections 126(2), 109(1), 115(2), 118(1), 118(2) & 3(5) of BNS 2023, Section 4/25 of Arms Act, 1959 (Amendment 2019) and Section 3(2)(v) of SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989 (Amendment 2015). 6. It is contended by learned counsel for the appellants that appellants have falsely been implicated in this case. Counsel submits that there is no allegation against the appellants of causing injury on the person of the injured. It is submitted that there are no criminal antecedents against the appellants. Charge- sheet has been filed and trial will take considerable time in its [2025:RJ-JP:12352] (3 of 4) [CRLAS-2749/2024] conclusion. Appellants are in custody since 12.09.2024 and further custody of the appellants would not serve any fruitful purpose. 7. Per contra, learned Public Prosecutor assisted by learned counsel for complainant vehemently opposes the prayer of bail made in this appeal. 8. Heard learned counsel for the appellant, learned counsel for the complainant and learned Public Prosecutor. Perused the material available on record. 9. Having regard to the totality of the facts and circumstances; considering the arguments advanced by learned counsel for the parties, material made available on record in the form of charge- sheet including injury report, so also considering the role attributed to the appellant Nos. 1 & 2 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, this Court deems it just and proper to enlarge the appellant Nos. 1 & 2 on bail. 10. Consequently, the instant appeal is partly allowed. The impugned order 26.09.2024 passed by learned Special Judge, SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Cases, Jhalawar (Raj) in Bail Application No.216/2024 is set aside qua appellant Nos. 1 & 2. It is ordered that the accused-appellants- (1) Bhairulal Son Of Naval and (2) Narayanlal Son Of Bhairulal arrested in connection with FIR No.202/2024 registered at Police Station Gangdhar, District Jhalawar (Raj.), shall be released on bail, if not wanted in any other case, provided each of them furnishes a personal bond of Rs.50,000/- and two sureties of Rs.25,000/- [2025:RJ-JP:12352] (4 of 4) [CRLAS-2749/2024] each to the satisfaction of the learned trial Court with the stipulation to appear before that Court on all dates of hearing and as and when called upon to do so. 11. The observation made herein above is only for decision of the instant appeal and would not have any impact on the trial of the case in any manner. (ANIL KUMAR UPMAN),J LALIT MOHAN /122
