Hamer Singh @ Amid Singh v. The State Of Telangana

THE HONOURABLE SMT. JUSTICE K. SUJANA CRIMINAL PETITION No.12823 of 2025 ORDER:

This Criminal Petition is filed seeking the Court to enlarge the petitioner, on bail, who is arrayed as accused in Crime No.1530 of 2025 of Madhapur Police Station, Cyberabad Commissionerate.

2.

The brief facts of the case are that on 13.08.2025, the Sub-Inspector of Police, Madhapur Police Station, received credible information about a prostitution racket being operated at BSR Guest Inn, Madhapur. Basing on the said information, the police obtained search permission, conducted a raid, and apprehended several persons, including organizers, hotel staff, customers, and sex workers, among whom were two foreign nationals overstaying their visas. Various mobile phones, cash, and other materials were seized. 3.

Heard Sri M. Rathan Singh, learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner as well as Sri E. Ganesh, learned Assistant Public Prosecutor appearing on behalf of the respondent - State.

4.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner, arrayed as accused No.1, was innocent and falsely implicated, and that there was no material on record connecting him with the alleged offence and that this was the first case registered against the petitioner and the recovery shown by the prosecution did not establish his involvement in any trafficking activity. He further submitted that the observation of the trial court regarding interference with the investigation was baseless, as there was no evidence of such conduct. Therefore, he prayed the Court to grant bail to the petitioner by allowing this criminal petition. 5.

On the other hand, learned Assistant Public Prosecutor opposed the bail petition stating that the allegations leveled against the petitioner are serious in nature. Further, the investigation was not yet completed. At this stage, granting of bail to the petitioner does not arise. Therefore, he prayed the Court to dismiss the criminal petition.

6.

In the light of the submissions made by both the learned counsel and upon a perusal of the material available on record, it appears that the petitioner has been in jail since 14.08.2025. It is the specific contention of the learned

Assistant Public Prosecutor that the other accused are absconding, whereas there has been an erroneous continuation of incarceration in respect of the petitioner. As seen from the record, the material part of the investigation was completed and the material witnesses, i.e., L.Ws.1 to 21, have already been examined. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, as well as the period of incarceration of the petitioner, this Court deems it fit to grant bail to the petitioner, subject to the following conditions: i.

The petitioner shall execute a personal bond for a sum of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand only), with two sureties for a like sum each to the satisfaction of the learned II Additional Junior Civil Judge-cum-X Additional Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Ranga Reddy District at Kukatpally, Cyberabad Commissionerate.

ii.

The petitioner shall appear before the concerned SHO at 11:00 a.m., on every Monday for a period of eight (8) week or till filing of charge sheet whichever is earlier, for the purpose of

investigation, and thereafter, as and when required.

iii.

The petitioner shall abide by the conditions stipulated in Section 437(3) of Cr.P.C.(presently, Section 480(3) of the BNSS).

7.

Accordingly, the Criminal petition is allowed. Miscellaneous applications, if any pending, shall stand closed.
