NAFR HIGH COURT OF CHHATTISGARH, BILASPUR MCRC No. 4792 of 2020 • Vinod Kumar, S/o. Shri Pan Sai, Aged about 40 years, Caste Harijan, Resident of Village Near Mission Chowk, Mohalla Kedarpur, Ambikapur, Police Station and Tehsil Ambikapur, District Surguja Chhattisgarh ---- Applicant

Versus

• State Of Chhattisgarh Through The Station House Officer, Police Station Gandhi Nagar, District Sarguja Chhattisgarh ---- Respondent For Applicant : Shri Rishi Rahul Soni, Advocate For Respondent/State : Shri Rahul Jha, GA Hon'ble Smt. Justice Rajani Dubey Order On Board 01/09/2020 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. 131/2020 registered at police station Gandhi Nagar, district Sarguja (CG) for the offence punishable under Sections 454 and 380 IPC.

As per prosecution case, report was lodged by the complainant alleging that the applicant has stolen one mobile set from his house. Counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant has been falsely implicated in the case. He submits that the applicant is in jail since 02.05.2020 and looking to the conduct of the prosecution it is clear that the trial will take time for its conclusion therefore he may be released on bail.

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. 50,000/- with one surety for the like sum to the satisfaction of the concerned Court, he shall be released on bail.
