Order 21/01/2026
1. These bail applications have been filed under Section 483 of BNSS on behalf of the petitioners, who have been arrested in connection with FIR No.231/2025 registered at Police Station Patan (Sikar), District Sikar for offences punishable under Sections 318(4), 308(6) and 61(2) of BNS, 2023.
2. It is contended by learned counsel for the petitioners that the accused-petitioners have falsely been implicated in this case.
[2026:RJ-JP:2607] (2 of 3) [CRLMB-16632/2025]
Learned counsel submit that offence under Section 318(4) of BNS, 2023 (corresponding to Section 420 of IPC) is not made out from the facts narrated in the FIR. They further submit that other offences are bailable in nature. They argue that other co-accused persons who are female have already been granted benefit of bail by this Court. Trial of the case will take considerable time in its conclusion. Petitioners are in custody since their date of arrest and further custody of the petitioners would not serve any fruitful purpose.
3. Learned Public Prosecutor opposes the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioners.
4. I have considered the contentions.
5. Having regard to the totality of the facts and circumstances of the case; considering the arguments advanced by learned counsel for the petitioners, especially the fact that other co- accused persons have already been granted benefit of bail by this Court; trial will take time in its conclusion as well as looking to the period of custody, but without commenting anything on the merits/demerits of the case, I deem it proper to allow these bail applications.
6. These bail applications are accordingly allowed and it is
directed that accused-petitioners- (1) Sumer Son Of Nathuram & (2) Ashok S/o Ramesh Chand shall be released on bail provided, each of them furnishes a personal bond in the sum of Rs.1,00,000/- (Rupees One Lakh Only) together with two sureties in the sum of Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty Thousand Only) each to the satisfaction of the learned trial Court with the stipulation that
[2026:RJ-JP:2607] (3 of 3) [CRLMB-16632/2025] they shall appear before that Court and any Court to which the matter is transferred, on all subsequent dates of hearing and as and when called upon to do so.
7. The observations made hereinabove are only for decision of these bail applications and would not have any impact on the trial of the case in any manner.
