PRADEEP KUMAR SHARMA Versus ANIL SOOD AND ANOTHER CRMP-1768 of 2026 in CR.R - 567 of 2023 26.05.2026 Present: Mr. Jagan Nath, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. Jagat Pal, Advocate, for respondent No.1. Mr. Rajan Kahol, Additional Advocate General with Mr. Anish Banshtu, Deputy Advocate General, for respondent No.2-State. By way of instant application filed under Section 528 of Bharatiya Nagrik Suraksha Sanhita, prayer has been made on behalf of applicant/respondent No.1 for release of amount lying deposited with the Registry of this court in compliance of order dated 13.09.2025. Learned counsel for the non-applicant/petitioner fairly states that he does not intend to file reply and shall have no objection in case prayer made in the application is allowed. Having carefully perused averments contained in the application, this Court finds that parties to the lis have already settled their dispute amicably before National Lok Adalat. National Lok Adalat, vide order dated 13.09.2025, dispose of the case with a condition that remaining amount of Rs.1,00,000/- shall be deposited by the petitioner in the Registry of this court within a period of 45 days and in the event of deposit of afore amount within a period of 45 days from today, judgment of conviction and order of sentence shall be set aside. While passing afore order, National Lok Adalat further ordered that sum of Rs.1,50,000/- lying deposited with the learned trial Court be released in favour of applicant/respondent No.1 by filing appropriate application before learned trial Court. Though in terms of afore order, sum of Rs.1,50,000/- has already been released in favour of applicant/respondent No.1, but sum of Rs.1,00,000/- lying deposited with the Registry of this court is yet to be released. In afore background, applicant/respondent No.1 has approached this Court in the instant proceedings. Since in terms of order dated 13.09.2025, petitioner has already deposited Rs.1,00,000/- with the Registry of this court and as such amount belongs to applicant/respondent No.1, this Court sees no impediment in ordering release of the same in favour of applicant/respondent No.1. Ordered accordingly. Registry is directed to release the aforesaid amount of Rs.1,00,000/- in the bank account of the applicant/ respondent No.1, detail whereof, is given para 3 of the application. Application stands disposed of. (Sandeep Sharma), Judge May 26, 2026 (Sunil)
