: Mr. Kailash Chand Katara, Adv. For Respondent(s) : Mr. N.S. Dhakar, PP HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR UPMAN 30/06/2025 Order

This second bail application has been filed under Section 483 of BNSS on behalf of the petitioner, who has been arrested in connection with FIR No.54/2023 registered at Police Station Chandwaji, District Jaipur (Rural) for the offences punishable under Sections 420, 406 & 120B of IPC, Sections 4, 5 & 6 of the Prize Chits and Money Circulation Schemes (Banning) Act, 1978 and Sections 3 & 21 of the Banning of Unregulated Deposit Schemes Act, 2019.

The first bail application filed on behalf of the petitioner was dismissed as withdrawn by this court vide order dated 27.03.2025 with liberty to renew the prayer of bail after filing of result of investigation. Now, charge-sheet has been filed thus, this second bail application has been preferred.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has falsely been implicated in this case. It is submitted that [2025:RJ-JP:23882] (2 of 3) [CRLMB-7403/2025] petitioner is not named in the FIR. It is contended that trial will take considerable time in its conclusion. Counsel contends that petitioner is in custody since 03.03.2025 and further custody of the petitioner would not serve any fruitful purpose.

Learned Public Prosecutor opposes the submissions made by counsel for the petitioner. He submits that two other criminal cases have been registered against the petitioner, one of which is of a similar nature.

I have considered the contentions.

Having regard to the totality of the facts and circumstances of the case; considering the arguments advanced by learned counsel for the petitioner, especially considering the fact that petitioner is not named in the FIR and trial will take considerable time in its conclusion as well as looking to the period of custody, but without commenting anything on the merits/demerits of the case, I deem it fit and proper to allow this second bail application.

This second bail application is accordingly allowed and it is directed that accused-petitioner- Nagarmal S/o Shri Lakshman Singh, shall be released on bail provided he furnishes a personal bond in the sum of Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty Thousand only) together with two sureties in the sum of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand only) each to the satisfaction of the learned Trial Court with the stipulation that he shall appear before that Court and any court to which the matter is transferred, on all subsequent dates of hearing and as and when called upon to do so. [2025:RJ-JP:23882] (3 of 3) [CRLMB-7403/2025]

It is made clear that the accused-petitioner shall not involve in any other offence(s) during currency of the bail and he shall mark his presence in first week of every month in the concerned police station.

Concerned SHO is directed to maintain a register recording the attendance of the petitioner, as directed above. In case the petitioner fails to mark his presence in the concerned police station, as directed above, the concerned SHO is directed to immediately report the matter to the concerned Court in this regard.

If any breach of these conditions is reported or come to the notice of the Court, the same shall alone be a reason for the trial court to cancel the bail granted to him by this Court.

The observation made hereinabove is only for decision of the instant bail application and would not have any impact on the trial of the case in any manner. Ashwani Kr Srivastava /-90 (ANIL KUMAR UPMAN),J
