1.

Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Public

Prosecutor. Perused the material available on record.

2.

The present bail application has been filed under Section 439

Cr.P.C. on behalf of the petitioner, who is in custody in connection

with F.I.R. No.408/2016, Police Station Naya Sahar, Bikaner for

the offences under Sections 302, 323, 341, 34, 143, 327 and 307

IPC.

3.

Shri Vineet Jain, learned counsel for the petitioner contends

that the petitioner is not named in the FIR. As per the highest

case set out in the FIR, head injuries were inflicted to the

deceased Rajesh by Ajay Saharan and Bunty Choudhary. Later on

in the statements of the witnesses recorded under Section 161

Cr.P.C., the petitioner was also implicated. However, even in these

statements, the specific allegation of causing head injury is

attributed to Ajay Saharan. Drawing attention of this Court to the

post mortem report of the deceased, Shri Jain urged that only one

injury was caused to the deceased on head which proved fatal.

Thus, he urges that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in

the case and deserves to be released on bail.

4.

Learned P.P. vehemently opposes the submissions advanced

by the petitioner''s counsel. However, he too does not dispute the

fact that neither the petitioner was named in the FIR nor is the

head injury caused to the deceased attributed to him in the

improved version of the prosecution witnesses in these statements

recorded under Section 161 Cr.P.C.

5.

Having regard to the entirety of the facts and circumstances

as available on record and upon a consideration of the arguments

advanced at the Bar but without expressing any opinion on the

merits of the case, this Court is of the opinion that the bail

application filed by the petitioner deserves to be accepted.

6.

Consequently, the bail application is allowed. It is ordered

that the accused-petitioner, Sunil Vishnoi arrested in connection

with F.I.R. No.408/2016, Police Station Naya Sahar, Bikaner shall

be released on bail; provided he furnishes a personal bond of

Rs.50,000/- and two surety bonds of Rs.25,000/- each to the

satisfaction of the learned trial court with the stipulation to appear

before that Court on all dates of hearing and as and when called

upon to do so.
