Criminal Miscellaneous Bail Application No. 1364/2025 Purushottam @ Narkata S/o Shri Ramswaroop, Aged About 46 Years, R/o Athaipada, Sapotra, Police Station Sapotra, District Karauli (Raj.). (The Accused Petitioner Presently Confined In District Jail, Karauli) ----Petitioner Versus State Of Rajasthan, Through PP ----Respondent For Petitioner(s) : Mr. Rajneesh Gupta For Respondent(s) : Ms. Arti Sharma, PP HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR UPMAN Order 29/01/2025 1. The instant bail application has been filed under Section 483 of BNSS on behalf of the petitioner, who has been arrested in connection with FIR No.7/2025 registered at Police Station Kudgaon, District Karaulil (Rajasthan) for the offences punishable under Sections 8/20, 8/25 & 8/29 of NDPS Act. Investigation is being conducted for the offences punishable under Sections 8/21, 8/25 & 8/29 of NDPS Act. 2. Learned counsel for the petitioner submit that petitioner has falsely been implicated in this case. Counsel submits that alleged recovered contraband is below commercial quantity. Counsel submits that there are no criminal antecedents of the petitioner of similar nature. Petitioner is in custody since 14.01.2025 and trial will take considerable time. Further custody of the petitioner would not serve any fruitful purpose. 3. Learned Public Prosecutor opposes the submissions made by counsel for the petitioner. 4. I have considered the contentions. [2025:RJ-JP:4111] (2 of 3) [CRLMB-1364/2025] 5. Having regard to the totality of the facts and circumstances of the case; considering the arguments advanced by learned counsel for the petitioner, as also the fact that alleged recovered contraband is below commercial quantity; absence of criminal antecedents of the petitioner of similar nature; period of custody, but without commenting anything on the merits/demerits of the case, I deem it fit and proper to allow these bail applications. 6. The bail application is accordingly allowed and it is directed that accused-petitioner Purushottam @ Narkata S/o Shri Ramswaroop 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 observation made hereinabove is only for decision of the instant bail application and would not have any impact on the trial of the case in any manner. 8. It is made clear that the accused-petitioner shall not involve in any other offence(s) during currency of the bail and he shall mark his presence in first week of every month in the concerned police station. 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 court to cancel the bail granted to him by this Court. [2025:RJ-JP:4111] (3 of 3) [CRLMB-1364/2025] 10. Concerned SHO is directed to maintain a register recording the attendance of the petitioner. In case the petitioner fails to mark his presence in the concerned police station, the concerned SHO is directed to immediately report the matter to the concerned Court in this regard.
