1. The accused/applicant has moved this Second bail application under Section 439 of Criminal Procedure Code for releasing him on regular bail during trial in connection with Crime No. 73/2009 registered at Police Station- Kusmi, District- BalrampurRamanujganj (C.G.) for the offence punishable under Sections 120-B, 364(A), 365, 386, 302, 396, 201 and 507 of IPC and Section 25 & 27 of Arms Act.

2. Present is a case of bail jump where earlier bail was granted to applicant by this Court on 27.07.2010 in MCRC No. 826/2010 whereafter due to absence of applicant his bail bonds were cancelled and he could be arrested on 14.12.2019 as a result of which the trial has got delayed unnecessarily.

3. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant has not committed any offence and due to some bona fide reason she could not appear before the trial Court. He further submits that now the applicant is in jail since 14.12.2019 and trial may

take some time for its final disposal therefore, the applicant may be released on bail.

4. On the other hand, counsel for the State opposes the bail application and the submission made in this respect. It is submitted that the allegation against the applicant is of serious in nature, therefore, no case is made out for grant of bail.

5. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the material available on record.

Having heard learned counsel for the parties, having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, considering the facts that the applicant was earlier granted benefit of bail and due to some bona fide reason he could not appear before the trial court, and now he is in custody since 14.12.2019, I am of the opinion that present is a fit case to release the applicant on bail.

7. Accordingly, the bail application filed under Section 439 Cr.P.C. is allowed.
