[2026:RJ-JP:6968] HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN BENCH AT JAIPUR S.B. Criminal Miscellaneous Bail Application No. 712/2026 Smt. Chandra Devi W/o Ramcharan, Aged About 45 Years, R/o Badokhari, Police Station Lahar, District Bhind (Madhyapradesh), Presently Ward No. 09, Mishro Ka Mohalla, Babai, Police Station Babai, District Jhunjhunu, Rajasthan. (At Present Confined In Sub Jail Khetri). ----Petitioner Versus State Of Rajasthan, Through PP ----Respondent For Petitioner(s) : Mr. Vikram Beniwal For Respondent(s) : Mr. Vivek Sharma, PP Mr. Omveer Singh Saini HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SANDEEP TANEJA Order 13/02/2026 1. This bail application has been filed by the accused-petitioner under Section 483 of B.N.S.S. in connection with FIR No.117/2025 registered at Police Station Babai, District Jhunjhunu, for the offence(s) punishable under Section(s) 108 B.N.S. 2. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the accused- petitioner, who is the mother-in-law of the deceased, has been falsely implicated in this case and she has nothing to do with the alleged offences. Learned counsel further submits that though, the FIR was earlier lodged for the offences punishable under Sections 80(2) and 85 B.N.S., however, after investigation, none of the said offences has been found proved against the petitioner and charge-sheet has been filed under Section 108 B.N.S. Learned counsel also submits that as per the Post-Mortem Report, there is no injury on the body of the deceased. He further submits that there was no instigation on the part of the petitioner to the deceased to commit suicide, hence ingredients of Section 108 are not made out against the petitioner. [2026:RJ-JP:6968] (2 of 2) [CRLMB-712/2026] 3. Learned counsel also contends that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent; she is in custody since 21.11.2025 and no recovery is required to be made from her. Learned counsel further submits that charge-sheet has already been filed in the matter and trial will considerably take long time in its conclusion, so no fruitful purpose would be served by keeping the petitioner in custody, therefore, the benefit of bail under Section 483 B.N.S.S. may be granted to the accused-petitioner. 4. Per contra, learned Public Prosecutor and learned counsel for the complainant oppose the submissions made by learned counsel for the petitioner hereinabove. 5. Taking into consideration the overall facts and circumstances of the case; considering the arguments advanced by learned counsel for both the parties, the fact that charge-sheet has already been filed and trial will take long time to conclude, thus, without commenting anything on the merits / demerits of the case, this Court deems it just and proper to enlarge the petitioner on bail. 6. Therefore, the bail application under Section 483 B.N.S.S. is allowed and the accused-petitioner, namely Smt. Chandra Devi W/o Ramcharan, is ordered to be released on bail, provided she furnishes a personal bond in the sum of Rs.50,000/- with two sureties of Rs.25,000/- each to the satisfaction of the Trial Court, with the stipulation that the petitioner shall appear before that Court on all subsequent dates of hearing and as and when she is called upon to do so.
