[3.0] Learned advocate appearing on behalf of the applicant submits that applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in the offence. Commencement of trial will take its own time. Charge-sheet is filed. He therefore submits that, considering the nature of the offence, the applicant may be enlarged on regular bail by imposing suitable conditions on the ground of parity. Page 1 of 5 R/CR.MA/12719/2026 ORDER DATED: 09/06/2026 [4.0] Learned APP appearing on behalf of the respondent-State has opposed the present application and submitted that applicant is actively participated in the offence. Hence, he has requested to dismiss the present application for regular bail. [5.0] While granting bail, the Court has to consider the involvement of the accused in the alleged offence, the jurisdiction to grant bail has to be exercised on the basis of the well settled principles having regard to the facts and circumstances of each case and the following factors are to be taken into consideration while considering an application for bail: (i) the nature of accusation and the severity of the punishment and the nature of the materials relied upon by the prosecution; (ii) reasonable apprehension of tampering with the witnesses and threat to the complainant or the witnesses; (iii) reasonable possibility of securing the presence of the accused at the time of trial or the likelihood of his abscondence; (iv) character behaviour and standing of the accused and the circumstances which are peculiar to the accused; (v) larger interest of the public or the State and similar other considerations are required to be considered. [6.0] I have heard the learned advocates appearing on behalf of the respective parties and perused the investigation papers. Following aspects have been considered: (1) Investigation is over and charge-sheet is filed. (2) None of the offence alleged is punishable with life R/CR.MA/12719/2026 ORDER DATED: 09/06/2026 sentence or death penalty; (3) Applicant is arrested on 17.04.2026; (4) commencement of trail will take its own time; (5) There is nothing to be recovered or discovered from the applicant; (6) The present applicant was working in the RBSG Capital Finance Company as a sales executive. It is alleged that he has received the installments towards the loan from the customers and against the sanctioned loan, he has received the installments from the three customers in total of Rs.63,774/-, which came to be used for his personal gain and he did not deposit the same with the Company, except this no role is attributed to him; (7) case is triable by the JMFC; [7.0] This Court has also taken into consideration the law laid down by the Hon'ble Apex Court in the case of Sanjay Chandra vs. Central Bureau of Investigation reported in [2012]1 SCC 40 as well as in the case of Gudikanti Narasimhulu And Ors vs. Public Prosecutor, High Court of Andhra Pradesh reported in (1978)1 SCC 240. Obviously, the conclusion of trial will take time and keeping the accused behind the bars is nothing but amounts to pre-trial conviction and therefore, considering the celebrated principle of bail jurisprudence is that “bail is a rule and jail is exception” as well as the concept of personal liberty guaranteed under Article 21 of the Constitution of India, present application deserves consideration.
