---- Applicant

Versus

• State Of Chhattisgarh Through The Station House Officer, Police Station Thankhamhariya, District - Bemetara Chhattisgarh. ---- Respondent For Applicant : Shri Suresh Kumar Verma, Advocate For Respondent/State : Shri V.K.Agrawal, PL Hon'ble Smt. Justice Rajani Dubey Order On Board 11/02/2020 The applicant has filed this application under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for grant of regular bail as he is in custody in connection with Crime No.98/2019 registered at police station Thankhamhariya, district North Bemetara (CG) for the offence punishable under Sections 324,341,307 and 328 IPC. As per prosecution case, due to some old dispute, the applicant had administered some insecticide to the son of complainant Girivar Verma, aged about 12 years.

Counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant has been falsely implicated in the case. He submits that the charge sheet has been filed; the applicant is in jail since 19.10.2019 and looking to the

conduct of the prosecution it is clear that the trial will take time for its conclusion.

On the other hand counsel for the State opposes the bail application.

Having heard counsel for the parties, considered the totality of the fact, in particular the detention period of the applicant, I am inclined to release him on regular bail. Accordingly, his application filed under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure is allowed. It is directed that in the event of the applicant's furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs. 25,000/- with one surety for the like sum to the satisfaction of the concerned Court, he shall be released on bail.
