(Prevention of Atrocities) Cases, Kota (hereinafter to be referred as ‘trial court’) in FIR No.166/2026 registered at Police Station Ramganjmandi, District Kota Rural for the offence under Sections [2026:RJ-JP:24571] (2 of 3) [CRLAS-1314/2026] 115(2), 126(2), 3(5) and 109(1) of BNS, 2023 and Sections 3(2) (v) and 3(2)(va) of SC/ST Act, whereby the trial court has dismissed the bail application filed on behalf of the appellants. 2. Heard learned counsel for the appellants as well as learned Public Prosecutor and perused the material available on record. 3. Learned counsel for the appellants submits that the appellants have falsely been implicated in this case. It is further submitted that though there are allegations against the present appellants regarding inflicting injuries on the injured Vishal @ Kanha and Manish @ Sardar, the FIR as well as the material collected during the investigation attribute the role of causing the sharp injury to the co-accused Aamin. No specific overt act involving infliction of any grievous or sharp-edged injury has been attributed to the present appellants. The appellants have been in judicial custody since 25.05.2026. It is further submitted that appellant Abid has one antecedent, while appellant Arsheel has three antecedents. Therefore, it is prayed that the appeal presented by the present appellants may be allowed and they may be enlarged on bail. 4. Despite service, no one has put in appearance on behalf of the complainant. 5. Learned Public Prosecutor has vehemently opposed the appeal. 6. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and without commenting anything on the merits/demerits of the case, I deem it just and proper to allow the appeal filed by the appellants under Section 14-A(2) of SC/ST Act. [2026:RJ-JP:24571] (3 of 3) [CRLAS-1314/2026] 7. Accordingly, this criminal appeal filed under Section 14-A(2) of SC/ST Act is allowed and order dated 05.06.2026 passed by the learned trial court is set aside.
