Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody since 15.12.2025. He further submits that the challan in the case has already been filed, the conclusion of trial will take sufficiently long time. He further submits that the petitioner has falsely been implicated in the FIR. He also submits that the [2026:RJ-JP:27737] (2 of 3) [CRLMB-577/2026] deceased had taken a loan of Rs. 90,000/- from the petitioner, and a cheque was issued by the deceased in favour of the petitioner.

He also submits that the said notice was replied by the deceased through his counsel on 07.12.2022. Thereafter, the petitioner filed a complaint before the Negotiable Instruments Court, Ajmer, wherein cognizance was taken and summons were issued to the deceased. He further submits that, as per the allegations in the FIR, the petitioner had not returned the cheque to the deceased. He also submits that the dispute between the parties has been pending since the year 2022, when the cheque was issued. Therefore, there was no instigation or abetment on the part of the petitioner that could have driven the deceased to commit suicide. He also submits that there is no criminal antecedents against the accused-petitioner of having committed any offence of similar nature or any other nature in past, therefore, he prays that the petitioner may be enlarged on bail. 3. Learned Public Prosecutor vehemently opposes the present bail application. 4. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as the learned Public Prosecutor and perused the material available on record. 5. Without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case and upon consideration of the fact that the petitioner is in custody since 15.12.2025; the challan has been filed; trial will take considerable time, there is no criminal antecedents against the [2026:RJ-JP:27737] (3 of 3) [CRLMB-577/2026] accused-petitioner of having committed any offence of similar nature or any other nature in past and further the fact that already complaint was lodged by petitoner in 2023 in respect of the dishonour of the cheque, a statutory notice had already been issued and a reply thereto had been filed by the deceased as way back in the year 2022, this Court is of the opinion that the bail application filed by the petitioner deserves to be accepted. 6. Consequently, the bail application is allowed. It is ordered that the accused-petitioner namely-Jagan Singh S/o Late Shri Mahendra Singh arrested in connection with F.I.R. No.317/2024, Police Station-Alwar Gate, District-Ajmer, shall be released on bail; provided he furnishes a personal bond of Rs.1,00,000/ (Rs. One Lakh Only) with two sureties of Rs. 50,000/- (Rs.
