Hon'ble Shri Justice Sanjay K. Agrawal Order On Board 30/04/18 1.

This is the first bail application filed under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 for grant of regular bail to the applicant who have been arrested in connection with Crime No.45/2018 registered at Police Station Kusmunda, District Korba (C.G.) for the offence punishable under Section 420 of the Indian Penal Code.

3.

Case of the prosecution, in brief, is that the applicant purchased Tractor-Trolley from the complainant but did not pay the instalments to the Finance Company and thereby the applicant committed the aforesaid offence.

4.

Learned counsel for the applicant would submit that the applicant has not committed any offence and has been falsely implicated in crime in question, the applicant is in jail since 24-02-2018. Charge-sheet has already

been filed and no useful purpose will be served by detaining him in jail, therefore, he may be released on regular bail. 5.

On the other hand, learned counsel for the State would oppose the bail application.

6.

I have heard learned counsel appearing for the parties and perused the case diary.

7.

Taking into consideration the facts and circumstances of the case, further taking into consideration the nature and gravity of the offence and the fact that the applicant is in custody since 24-02-2018, this Court is of the opinion that present is a fit case in which the applicant should be enlarged on regular bail.

8.

Accordingly, the bail application filed under Section 439 of the Cr.P.C. is allowed. It is directed that the applicant shall be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs.25,000/- with one surety in the like sum to the satisfaction of the concerned trial Court for his appearance as and when directed.
