Hon'ble Shri Justice Sanjay K. Agrawal Order on Board 26/04/2016 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 has been arrested in connection with Crime No.367/2015, registered at Police Station-City Kotwali, District-Baloda Bazar-Bhatapara (CG), for the offence punishable under Sections 466, 467, 468, 472 and 474/34 of the IPC.

2.

Case of the prosecution, in brief, is that the present applicant along with co-accused was found making attempt to get the loan sanctioned on the basis of fake and forged documents. 3.

Learned counsel for the applicant would submit that the applicant has not committed any offence and he has falsely been implicated in crime in question. He would further submit that he is simply

villager and forgery has been committed by co-accused Rajkumar @ Raju Sahu. The present applicant has not gained anything and charge-sheet has already been filed, therefore, he may be released on bail.

4.

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

5.

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

6.

Taking into consideration the facts & circumstances of the case, nature & gravity of the offence, role of the present applicant, his pre-trial detention, nature of offence, the fact that charge-sheet has already been filed and bail was granted to co-accused Bislal Mehar vide order dated 20.4.2016 in M.Cr.C.No.1155 of 2016, this Court is of the opinion that present is a fit case, in which, the applicant should be enlarged on regular bail.

7.

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

8.

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.
