BAIL APPLN. 479/2025 3.

Second Bail Application under Section 483 of 528 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (hereinafter referred to as 'B.N.S.S.') has been filed on behalf of the Petitioner, Shashi Bhushan Sharma, seeking interim bail for a period of 15 days in Case FIR No. 0403/2023 under Section 376D/506 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860 (hereinafter referred to as 'IPC') registered at Police Station Seemapuri. 4.

It is submitted that the Charge-Sheet under Section 376D/506 of the IPC, has been filed against the Petitioner on 01.08.2023. He was granted interim bail to perform last rituals of his mother by learned ASJ vide Order The authenticity of the order can be re-verified from Delhi High Court Order Portal by scanning the QR code shown above.

dated 27.12.2024 and was directed to surrender by 28.01.2025. However, he was hospitalised on 23.01.2025 in emergency due to stroke and other medical conditions and he needs to undergo surgery on emergency basis. 5.

The Petitioner moved an Application for extension of interim bail by seven days but the same was dismissed by the learned Trial Court on 28.01.2025.

6.

It is submitted that the opinion of the Doctor shows that he is diabetic & suffers from OSA (obstructive sleep Apnea). He needs further hospitalisation. If he looks satisfactory, he could be discharged in 10-15 days, according to the surgeon, who operated. It is, therefore, submitted that the further extension of interim Bail be given for 15 days. 7.

Learned APP has opposed the further extension of Interim Bail on the ground that the surgery for Laser treatment for varicose vein had been done earlier. The Interim Bail has been granted solely on account of demise of the mother. Even now, as per his own submission, he is a case of diabetes and OSA (obstructive sleep Apnea). There is no ground for further extension of Interim Bail.

Submission heard and the record perused.

The Interim Bail had been granted till 28.01.2025 on the ground of demise of the mother. The Petitioner instead of surrendering on 28.01.2025, had sought an extension by seven days, which in any case, he has availed despite there being no Order extending the Interim Bail. Before the learned ASJ, the extension had been sought for seven days but now in the present Petition it is submitted that further extension of 10-15 days be given for which there is no cogent reason or explanation. Diabetes and OSA are chronic life disease and there is no short cut to its treatment.
