1. The present bail application has been filed under Section 483 BNSS, 2023 against the order dated 10.03.2026 passed by learned Additional Sessions Judge No.1, District-Ajmer, in Criminal Misc. Case No.251/2026, whereby the bail application of the petitioner was rejected in connection with F.I.R. No.161/2024, Police Station-Ram Ganj, District-Ajmer for the offences under Section 420, 406, 120B of the IPC, 1860.
2. Learned counsel for the petitioner that there are no criminal antecedents of the petitioner of having committed any offences of similar or any other nature in the past. He further submits that only two witnesses have been examined and there are as many as 15 witnesses in list of witnesses.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the challan in the case has already been filed and the conclusion of trial will take
(2 of 3) [CRLMB-8540/2026] sufficiently long time and even the offences are triable by Magistrate, and therefore, she prays that the petitioner be enlarged on bail as the accused is in custody since 08.09.2025.
4. Learned Public Prosecutor vehemently opposes the bail application.
5. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Public Prosecutor and perused the material available on record.
6. Without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case and upon consideration of the arguments advanced that offences are tiriably by Magistrate; challan has already been filed; trial will take considerable long time; only two witnesses out of 15 witnesses have been examined till date; the petitioner is in custody since 08.09.2025 which is about 11 months; there are no criminal antecedents of the petitioner of having committed any offence of similar nature or any other nature in past, this Court is of the opinion that the bail application filed by the petitioner deserves to be accepted.
7. Consequently, the bail application is allowed. It is ordered that the accused-petitioner - Devendra Kalot S/o Gangaram Kalot arrested in connection with F.I.R. No.161/2024, Police Station-Ram Ganj, District-Ajmer, shall be released on bail; provided he furnishes a personal bond of Rs.1,00,000/ (Rs. One Lakh Only) with two sureties of Rs. 50,000/- (Rs. Fifty Thousand Only) each, to the satisfaction of the learned Trial Court with the stipulation to appear before that Court on all dates of hearing and as and when called upon to do so till the completion of the trial and with additional following conditions:
(3 of 3) [CRLMB-8540/2026]
(i) The petitioner shall not leave country without the permission of the Court;
(ii) The petitioner shall not commit an offence similar to the offence of which he is accused, or suspected, of the commission of which he is suspected; and
(iii) 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 from disclosing such facts to the Court or to any police officer or tamper with the evidence. (BIPIN GUPTA),J 20/JUBIN
