[2026:RJ-JP:21543] HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN BENCH AT JAIPUR S.B. Criminal Miscellaneous Bail Application No. 804/2026 1. Santosh Kumar S/o Vasudev, Aged About 45 Years, R/o Dhakad Colony, Jaipur Road, Todaraisingh, District Tonk, Rajasthan. 2. Poonam W/o Santosh Kumar, Aged About 36 Years, R/o Dhakad Colony, Jaipur Road, Todaraisingh, District Tonk, Rajasthan. ----Petitioners Versus State Of Rajasthan, Through Pp ----Respondent For Petitioner(s) : Mr. Rajveer Singh Gurjar For Respondent(s) : Mr. Jaiprakash Tiwari, PP Mr. Vijendra Yadav HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE PRAMIL KUMAR MATHUR Order 21/05/2026 1. Apprehending arrest in connection with FIR No.01/2024 registered at Police Station-Todaraisingh, District-Kekri for the offences under Sections 420, 467, 468, and 471, IPC, the petitioners have preferred this bail application under Section 482 BNSS. 2. Heard learned counsel for the petitioners, learned Public Prosecutor and counsel for the complainant and perused the material available on record. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners have falsely been implicated in this case. It is submitted that the present case pertains to allegations relating to a company, wherein it is alleged that the present petitioners [2026:RJ-JP:21543] (2 of 3) [CRLMB-804/2026] forged the signatures of the complainant Anil Kumar and on the basis of such forged signatures he transferred 2500 shares into his own and his wife’s account. It is further submitted that the alleged transaction relates to the year 2017, whereas the FIR has been registered in the year 2024 after an inordinate delay of approximately six years. It is further submitted that in a similar matter arising out of the same company, the Hon’ble Supreme Court vide order dated 28.09.2025 has granted anticipatory bail to the petitioner therein. The present case also arises out of the same company and is based on similar allegations. It is further submitted that the petitioner has already presented himself before the Investigating Officer; however, despite his cooperation, the investigation has not yet been commenced in a meaningful manner. Hence, the bail application of the petitioners may be allowed. 4. Learned Public Prosecutor and counsel for the complainant have vehemently opposed the bail application and states that despite directions of this Court, petitioner has not appeared before the I.O. concerned. 5. Considering the fact that the petitioners are ready and willing to co-operate with the investigation of the case, without commenting anything on the merits/demerits of the case, I deem it just and proper to allow the bail application of the petitioners. 6. Accordingly, the bail application under Section 482 BNSS is allowed and it is ordered that in the event of arrest of the petitioners- Santosh Kumar S/o Vasudev and Poonam W/o Santosh Kumar each of them shall be released on bail on their [2026:RJ-JP:21543] (3 of 3) [CRLMB-804/2026] furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs.50,000/- with two sureties in the sum of Rs.25,000/- each to the satisfaction of the S.H.O/I.O/Arresting Officer of the concerned Police Station on the following conditions:- (i) that the petitioners shall make themselves available for interrogation by a police officer as and when required; (ii) that the petitioners shall not directly or indirectly make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as to dissuade them from disclosing such facts to the court or any police officer, and (iii) that the petitioners shall not leave India without previous permission of the court.
