Ms. Shivani Jaglan, Advocate for the petitioner. Ms. Deepali Verma, AAG Haryana.

***** SURYA PARTAP SINGH, J. (oral) This petition is the first petition for bail, filed by the petitioner under Section 483 of 'the Bharatiya Nagrik Suraksha Sanhita', 2023. It has been filed with regard to a case arising out of FIR No.183 dated 22.06.2020, for the commission of offence punishable under Sections 34 and 379A of IPC Act, Police Station Industrial Sector 29, District Panipat. 2.

In nut-shell, the facts emerging from the record are that the petitioner, who is facing a trial for the commission of offence punishable under Section 379-A of IPC, was enlarged on bail. However, on 06.05.2025 he did not appear before the learned trial Court and therefore, his bail was cancelled and bail bonds were forfeited to the State. Subsequent thereto on 23.02.2026 the petitioner surrendered before the Court and since then he is in custody.

3.

Keeping in view the fact that the petitioner has surrendered and appeared before the Court and that the trial is not likely to be concluded in VINOD KUMAR ARYA 2026.03.20 14:39 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document

CRM-M-13721-2026 (O&M) near future, the petitioner is hereby admitted to fresh bail on furnishing bonds to the satisfaction of the learned trial Court. However, the learned trial Court shall be at liberty to proceed against the petitioner under Section 491 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), 2023 (erstwhile Section 446 of CrPC).

4.

Accordingly, without commenting anything on the merits of the case, the present petition is hereby allowed. However the abovementioned concession shall be subject to following conditions:- (i) that the petitioner shall not directly or indirectly make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case, so as to dissuade him to disclose such facts to the Court or to any other authority.

(ii) that the petitioner shall at the time of execution of bond, furnish the address to the Court concerned and shall notify the change in address to the trial Court, till the final decision of the trial; and (iii) that the petitioner shall not leave India without prior permission of the trial Court.
