1. Heard.
2. The applicants moved this application for grant of bail in connection with Crime No.10/2020 registered at Police Station- Hirri, District- Bilaspur, C.G. for alleged commission of offence under Section 395 of Indian Penal Code.
3. Case of the prosecution is that the applicants looted around Rs.8,000/- from the victim.
4. Learned counsel for the applicants submits that looking to the amount involved and that the applicants are young boys aged 19 to 21 years, maximum punishment which could be imposed for looting amount of Rs.8000/- and further that investigation is complete, charge sheet has been filed, therefore,
at this stage, the applicants may be granted bail.
5. On the other hand, learned State Counsel opposes the prayer for grant of bail and submits that as the identification has already been taken place, prima facie, case is made out against all the applicants.
6. Having considered the submission made by learned counsel for the parties, particularly taking into consideration the amount alleged to be looted and further that investigation is complete, charge sheet has been filed and maximum sentence which could be awarded for alleged commission of offence, I am inclined to grant bail to the applicants.
7. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed. It is directed that the applicants shall be released on bail on each of them furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs.25,000/- along with one local surety for the like amount to the satisfaction of the Trial Court on the condition thata) They shall appear before the Trial Court regularly on each and every date, unless exempted from appearance.
