Several material witnesses, including the complainant, have already been examined by the Trial Court and, as per order dated 07.01.2026 placed on record, 13 witnesses have already been examined and only two witnesses are remaining. [2026:RJ-JP:13455] (3 of 5) [CRLMB-4720/2026] This Court had earlier dismissed the bail application on 25.08.2025 with the following observation: 6. On the basis of complaint dated 31.01.2023 lodged by complainant Rahul Tambi about call to extort money is registered and after investigation police has filed a charge-sheet. As per material submitted by learned counsel 11 witnesses were examined so far and cross- examination of 11th witness Narendra Singh is reserved. One of the accused Ashish Bishnoi who is facing trial with present petitioner accused was granted bail by learned Additional Sessions Judge no.3, Jaipur Metropolitan-II on 19.01.2024. The material on record indicate that 20 criminal cases were pending against Ashish Bishnoi. After considering the order passed by the Presiding Officer of same Court on 19.01.2024, new Presiding Officer has dismissed the bail application on 06.02.2025 referring the material available on record and also considering the material against petitioner accused. 7. This Court while considering revision petition no. 2145/2024 on 03.03.2025 in respect of Juvenile in same matter has dismissed the revision petition. Earlier also, dismissed the revision petition no. 1066/2023 of same juvenile on 20.09.2023. This Court has also dismissed revision petition no. 105/2024 for another juvenile who is behind bar and denied bail to him on the basis of material available on [2026:RJ-JP:13455] (4 of 5) [CRLMB-4720/2026] record. A Co-ordinate Bench has allowed bail of Rishab @ Yashchand on 20.06.2023. There were two criminal cases agains Rishab@ Yashchand. 8. Herein material on record clearly indicate that present petitioner accused is active member of Rohit Godara Gang, who is involved in extortion of money from influential people. The police report also indicate that petitioner accused is involved in organized crime and he is one of the key accused against whom 20 criminal cases were registered and most of them are very serious in nature. Having considered the material on record and looking to seriousness of the charge, present petitioner is not entitled to be released on bail. 7. As per the Trial Court record, 21 criminal cases were registered against the petitioner, whereas as per the police report submitted by the Public Prosecutor, 20 criminal cases are registered against the petitioner, out of which two resulted in acquittal. The material on record indicates that the present petitioner is involved with an international gang and regularly indulging in an organized crime syndicate, therefore, the period of custody for such a person is immaterial is not a ground to release on bail. It is considered appropriate to direct the Trial Court to expedite the trial and conclude the same at the earliest, as only two witnesses remain to be examined. [2026:RJ-JP:13455] (5 of 5) [CRLMB-4720/2026] 8. The facts and the material indicate that the alleged offence are of serious nature and role attributed to applicant is prima facie sufficient to consider complicity of applicant in the crime. Therefore, at this juncture, considering the evidence collected so far, this is not a fit case to enlarge the applicant accused on bail. 9. Considering the gravity of allegations and overall facts and circumstances of the case, it is appropriate to dismiss the bail application of the applicant accused at this stage. 10. Accordingly, the application for bail filed under Section 483 of BNSS preferred by Hrithik Thakurwani @ Hrithik Boxer S/o Shri Kishanchand is hereby dismissed. 11. The Trial Court is directed to record the statements as early as possible and to fix the matter on a day-to-day basis till disposal of the criminal case. A copy of this order be sent to the Trial Court for compliance. (ASHOK KUMAR JAIN),J PREETI VALECHA /04
