The earlier pe**on bearing No.CRM-M-19822-2026 was dismissed as withdrawn on 20.04.2026 (Annexure P-4). 2.

It is further the prosecu*on case that in the disclosure statement of Rajpal Singh @ Raja, the pe**oner Robinjit Singh @ Rahul Bhangura was nominated to be involved in the crime. Pe**oner was arrested on 22.10.2025, but nothing was recovered from him. Inves*ga*on is already complete. Challan has already been filed. 3. It is submiHed by learned counsel that pe**oner has been falsely implicated; that no recovery has been effected from him; that he was nominated only on the basis of the disclosure statement of the co- accused, which has no eviden*ary value; that inves*ga*on is already complete and that trial is likely to take long *me to conclude and so, considering his custody period, he be allowed regular bail. 4. No*ce of mo*on. 5. Mr. Ravneet Singh Joshi, DAG, Punjab, accepts no*ce on behalf of the respondent-State. Though, learned State counsel concedes the factual posi*on that no recovery was effected from the present pe**oner and that his name has surfaced only in the disclosure statement of the co- accused and that no other incrimina*ng material has been found against him, but it is contended that the contraband recovered from the co- accused falls in the commercial category. It is further stated that the pe**oner is involved in six more cases. 6. Heard. It is not disputed that no recovery has been effected from the pe**oner despite conclusion of inves*ga*on and thus, the only incrimina*ng circumstance against him is the disclosure statement of the co-accused. The eviden*ary value of such a disclosure statement is to be considered during trial. Pe**oner is in custody for the last more than 7 YOGESH MEHTA 2026.06.17 18:58 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document CRM-M-33007-2026 (O&M) [3] months.
