***** CRM-A-907-2023 Applicant's counsel submits that the present application was filed against acquittal in the year 2023 and he has a very good case on merit. Legal aid counsel appearing for the respondent submits that there is no reason for the respondent to dispute the order and in case any adverse orders are passed, he has to comply with the same and further if this Court refers the matter to the mediation, he will communicate the same to the respondent. However, he submits that the judgment of acquittal is well reasoned and leave to appeal should not be granted. He further submits that in case, this Court grants leave to appeal and admit the main appeal, its turn will not come for hearing for decades, as such pendency of the appeal may be treated in-consequential for the respondent.  Leave to appeal granted.

Counsel for the respondent submits that he be exempted from furnishing bail bonds/surety bonds before the concerned trial Court or Chief Judicial Magistate. He undertakes to surrender before the majesty of Court as and when this Court directed to do so or in case of reversal of the judgment.  Given such undertaking, there shall be no need to furnish bail bonds/surety bonds by the respondent.

Main appeal Admit.

List for final hearing on its own turn as per its queue following the roster. Learned legal aid counsel submits that he would be doing this matter as pro bono.
