Rule. Learned APP waives service of notice of Rule on behalf of respondent-State.
This application is filed under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for regular bail in connection with F.I.R. No.11188010230339 of 2023 registered with Shamlaji Police Station, District Arvalli.
Learned advocate for the applicant submits that considering the nature of offence and role attributed to the applicant, the applicant may be enlarged on regular bail by imposing suitable conditions.
The learned APP appearing for the respondent State vehemently submits that the offences which have been charged, are serious in nature and looking to the facts as well as the allegations made against the applicant, no discretion would be required to be exercised.
I have heard learned advocates appearing for the parties and perused the papers of investigation. From the record it appears that the investigation is over and Charge-sheet has already been filed. It appears from the papers that no other criminal antecedents are levelled against the present applicant, except the present one.
Considering the same, the present application deserves to be allowed.
In the facts and circumstances of the case and considering the nature of allegations made in the FIR and without discussing the evidence in details as well as without going into details, prima-facie, this Court is of the opinion that this is a fit case to exercise the discretion to enlarge the applicant on bail. Hence, the application is allowed and the applicant is ordered to be released on bail in connection with the aforesaid FIR, on executing a bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand only) with one surety of the like amount to the satisfaction of the trial Court and subject to the conditions that;
