Criminal Miscellaneous Bail Application No. 14948/2025 Vijay Kumar Damor S/o Shri Lalit Kumar Damor, Aged About 34 Years, R/o Village Vagdari, Police Station Sadar, District Dungarpur, Rajasthan. (At Present Confined In Central Jail Jaipur, District Jaipur) ----Petitioner Versus State Of Rajasthan, Through Public Prosecutor. ----Respondent For Petitioner(s) : Mr. Bhanu Prakash Sharma For Respondent(s) : Mr. Manvendra Singh, PP, Ms. Manju Dave, PP HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE PRAVEER BHATNAGAR Order 31/01/2026 1. The instant bail application has been filed under Section 483 BNSS on behalf of accused-petitioner. The accused-petitioner has been arrested in connection with FIR No. 18/2025 registered at Police Station Special Police Station (SOG), District ATS & SOG for the offences under Sections 420, 120-B of IPC and Sections 2(f)(ii), 3, 4, 6 and 10 of Rajasthan Public Examination (Measures to Prevent Unfair Means in Recruitment) Act, 2022. 2. Learned counsel for the accused-petitioner submits that the accused-petitioner has falsely been implicated in this case. He further submits that the petitioner was arrested on 10.06.2025 and charge-sheet has already been submitted. It is also contended that two cases were registered against the petitioner and other co-accused for leaking the paper of Pradhyapak School Shiksha, [2026:RJ-JP:4517] (2 of 4) [CRLMB-14948/2025] 2022. The accused-petitioner was in custody in another FIR No.227/2022 registered at Police Station Bekariya and the present case was lodged in Police Station SOG on 10.04.2025. It is also contended that there is no substantive material available on record indicating the petitioner's involvement in leaking the papers. The main co-accused Kavita Lekhra was granted bail vide order dated 01.12.2025 by Hon'ble Apex Court in SLP No.17462/2025 and thereafter other co-accused Omprakash and Deepak Lakshkar were also granted bail on the ground of parity with the other co-accused Kavita Lekhra. The other co-accused Sumer Bishnoi, Omprakash, Vaidhayi, Gopal, Roshan and Padma have already been enlarged on bail by this Court by various orders. The charge-sheet against the petitioner has already been submitted and trial of the case may take considerable time, therefore, the bail application of the accused-petitioner may be allowed. 3. Learned Public Prosecutor has vehemently opposed the bail application and contended that the petitioner is involved in mass cheating and leaking of the papers of Pradhyapak School Shiksha, 2022, the accused-petitioner was also found to involve in other cases of similar nature, therefore, looking to the fact that the act of the petitioner is a menace to the society, therefore, the bail application of the accused-petitioner may be dismissed. 4. Heard and perused the material available on record. 5. Considering the fact that the accused-petitioner is already in custody in another case from 18.04.2022 till his bail granted in another FIR, registered at Police Station Bekariya. In the instant case, the charge-sheet has already been submitted and main co- [2026:RJ-JP:4517] (3 of 4) [CRLMB-14948/2025] accused Kavita Lekhra has already been enlarged on bail by the Hon'ble Apex Court and similarly this Court has also enlarged the other co-accused Omprakash and Deepak on bail, on the ground of parity with Kavita Lekhra, therefore, considering the above facts and without commenting anything on the merits of the case, I deem it just and proper to enlarge the accused-petitioner on bail. 6. Accordingly, the bail application under Section 483 BNSS is allowed and it is ordered that the accused-petitioner Vijay Kumar Damor S/o Shri Lalit Kumar Damor, in connection with FIR No. 18/2025 registered at Police Station Special Police Station (SOG), District ATS & SOG, shall be enlarged on bail provided he furnishes a personal bond in the sum of Rs.50,000/- with two sureties of Rs.25,000/- each to the satisfaction of the learned trial Judge for his appearance before the court concerned on all the dates of hearing and as and when called upon to do so.
