Through PS, CCS, Hyderabad.

..... Respondent/complainant COMMON ORDER Since the issue involved in all the criminal petitions is one and the same, all the criminal petitions were heard together and are being disposed of by this common order.

2.

These Criminal Petitions are filed under Section 480 & 483 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (for short 'BNSS') seeking to enlarge the petitioner on bail, who is arrayed

as accused in Crime Nos.101, 95 and 102 of 2025, respectively before the INSP ADMIN (DD) Police Station, Hyderabad. 3.

The brief facts of the case are that, basing on the complaints lodged by de-facto complainants alleging irregularities and fraudulent practices committed by Universal Srushti Fertility & Research Centre, Secunderabad, and its staff in connection with a surrogacy procedure, the Gopalapuram Police registered a case in Crime Nos.157, 154, 152 and 156 of 2025. The cases were subsequently transferred to CCS, DD, Hyderabad, wherein it was re-registered as Crime Nos.101, 95 and 102 of 2025.

4.

Heard Sri Y. Soma Srinath Reddy, learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner as well as Sri D. Arun Kumar, learned Additional Public Prosecutor appearing on behalf of the respondent-State.

5.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that this Court on 11.11.2025 has already directed the investigating officer to follow the due procedure contemplated under Section 35(3) of BNSS in all the said crimes, meanwhile the trial Court regularized the arrest of petitioner on 10.11.2025 during

pendency of the anticipatory bail applications. Hence, prayed this Court to grant regular bail to the petitioner in all these crimes.

6.

On the other hand, learned Additional Public Prosecutor would submit that the application for regularization of arrest was filed prior to filing of anticipatory bail applications. As such, the same was allowed by the trial Court on 10.11.2025. Therefore, there is no irregularity and prayed this Court to dismiss these criminal petitions.

7.

In the light of the submissions made by both the learned counsel and on perusal of the material available on record, it is seen that this Court has already directed the investigating officer to follow the procedure contemplated under Section 35 (3) of BNSS on 11.11.2025 observing that Section 111 of BNS is not applicable to the petitioner and the other offences alleged are punishable with less than seven years. Considering all these circumstances, this Court deems it fit to grant bail to the petitioner subject to the following conditions: i.

The petitioner who is the accused in subject crimes shall execute a personal bond for a sum of

Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand only), in each crime with two sureties for a like sum each in each crime to the satisfaction of XII Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Nampally.
