[2026:RJ-JP:16345] (3 of 3) [CRLMB-3830/2026]
9. On consideration of submissions, this Court prima-facie finds that the articles which were alleged to have been taken by the accused-petitioners have already been recovered by the Police and looking to the submissions made by counsel for both the parties, the possibility of money dispute cannot be ruled out. Hence, this Court without expressing any opinion on the merits or demerits of the case, deems just and proper to enlarge the accused-petitioner on bail.
10. Accordingly, the bail application under Section 483 BNSS is allowed and it is ordered that the accused-petitioners named above shall be enlarged on bail provided, each of them furnish a personal bond in the sum of Rs.1,00,000/- together with two sureties of Rs.50,000/- each to the satisfaction of the learned trial Judge for their appearance before the Court concerned on all the dates of hearing and as and when called upon to do so.
