NAFR HIGH COURT OF CHHATTISGARH, BILASPUR MCRC No. 5154 of 2019 • Vicky @ Vijay Sahjawani S/o Shri Avatram Sahjawani Aged About 34 Years R/o Block No.04, Kushabhau Thakare Apartment, P S New Rajendra Nagar, District Raipur Chhattisgarh.

---- Applicant

Versus

• State Of Chhattisgarh Through The Station House Officer, Police Station Pandary, Raipur Chhattisgarh.

---- Respondent For Applicant : Shri Sumit Singh Rathore, Advocate For Respondent/State : Shri Anurag Verma, PL Hon'ble Smt. Justice Rajani Dubey Order On Board 08/11/2019 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.349/2014 registered at police station Pandari, District Raipur (CG) for the offence punishable under Sections 420 IPC.

Case of the prosecution in brief is that the applicant has cheated and thereby dishonestly induced 240 persons and took Rs. 14,40,000/- from them.

Counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant has been falsely implicated in the crime and he is in jail since 23.06.2019. He

submits that the offence is triable by Magistrate First Class and looking to the conduct of the prosecution it is clear that the trial will take time for its conclusion and 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.
