By this Petition, the Petitioner has challenged the order dated 25.03.2025 passed by the District Judge-1 and Addl. Sessions Judge Gondia in Cri.Apl.No. 13/2025 rejecting the application for seeking permission to travel abroad. 2.

The Petitioner/Applicant by name Deepak Kunjilal Bhutada is facing prosecution which is still in progress and charge-sheet is yet to be filed. The Petitioner seeks permission to travel abroad contending that his son and daughter-in-law are residing in Texas (USA) since 2019. Now, the Petitioner alongwith his wife intends to visit at the house of his son on 25.03.2025 as his daughter in law has delivered a child and intends to stay there for three months. The said application was rejected by the learned District Judge-1 and Addl. Sessions Judge, Gondia by assailing the reason that the Applicant has not provided his travel plan or itinerary to demonstrate his travel plan i.e. the only reason, the application is rejected.
