JUSTICE SAMEER JAIN Judgment 19/11/2025 1. The instant appeal has been filed under Section 14A of SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act on behalf of the appellants, who is in custody in connection with FIR No. 179/2025 Police Station [2025:RJ-JP:46757] (3 of 4) [CRLAS-2655/2025] Khanpur District Jhalawar for the offences under Sections 103(1), 191(2), 191(3), 190 of IPC and Section 3(2)(v) of the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. 2. Learned counsel for the appellants has submitted that appellants are the sole bread earners of their respective families, aged in between 20 to 30 years. It is further submitted that there are no criminal antecedents pending against the applicants and the charge-sheet has already been filed in the instant matter and the trial is likely to take considerable time to conclude. It is also submitted that the sole injury caused by a knife/wooden stick has been specifically attributed to the main accused, namely Manish Rathore and Sumit Dhobi, and the present appellants have no major role to play. 3. Per contra, learned Public Prosecutor as well as learned counsel for the complainant have opposed the instant appeal and submitted that it was a premeditated murder committed in furtherance of the common intention of appellants, hence all the appellants are actively involved in the commission of the offence. 4. Having heard the arguments advanced by learned counsel for the parties, considering the custody period of the appellants and considering the fact that charge-sheet has already been filed; that there are no criminal antecedents against the applicants; that specific injury is attributed to the main accused, namely Manish Rathore and Sumit Dhobi, and looking to the overall facts and circumstances of the case and material on record but without commenting on merits/demerits of the case, this court is inclined [2025:RJ-JP:46757] (4 of 4) [CRLAS-2655/2025] to allow the appeal of the accused-appellants and enlarge them on bail. 5.
