He further submits that the offences alleged against the accused- petitioner are exclusively triable by Magistrate. The charge-sheet has already been submitted. The accused-petitioner is in custody since long and the trial of the case may take considerable time, therefore, the bail application of the accused-petitioner may be allowed. [2026:RJ-JP:18561] (2 of 3) [CRLMB-6224/2026] 3. Learned Public Prosecutor has vehemently opposed the bail application and contended that the petitioner was found to be involved in illegal mining and against him, 6 similar nature of cases were registered, 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 offences alleged against the accused-petitioner are exclusively triable by Magistrate, the accused-petitioner is in custody since long and the trial of the case may take considerable time, the charge-sheet has already been submitted, without commenting anything on the merits of the case, I deem it just and proper to enlarge the accused-petitioner on bail. 6.
