Considering the medical condition of the petitioner and without commenting anything on the merits of the case and also bearing in mind the custody period of the petitioner besides the fact that he is not wanted in any other case, in my opinion, no useful purpose will be served by detaining the petitioner behind bars any further. The petition, as such, is accepted. The petitioner Parshotam Singh is ordered to be released on bail on her furnishing bail bonds/surety bonds to the satisfaction of learned trial Court/Chief Judicial Magistrate/Duty Magistrate concerned. However, in case the petitioner indulges in any activity akin to one for which he has been convicted, while on bail, the prosecution agency will be at liberty to seek the cancellation of the order granting bail to the petitioner.
