CORAM :
M.M. NERLIKAR, J. DATE : NOVEMBER 05, 2026. Heard learned Counsel for the parties.
2. These applications are filed by the applicant seeking release of pass-port and permit him to travel to Thailand, particularly Pataya between 01.12.2026 to 25.12.2026. The learned Counsel submits that pursuant to order dated 17.08.2020 in Criminal Application (BA) No.169/2020 and order dated 17.08.2021 in Criminal Application (BA) Rgd. 2026:BHC-NAG:15157
Order
No.589/20210, this Court has imposed condition that the applicant shall surrender his pass-port, as well as not leave the local jurisdiction, without prior intimation to the concerned police station. The learned Counsel further submitted that for the purpose of business, the applicant is intending to travel Pataya, and for that purpose he requires his pass-port, so as to enable him to book tickets to travel to Pataya, therefore, the aforesaid conditions be relaxed.
3. On the other hand, the learned A.P.P. opposes the applications by contending that the offences are serious in nature, it is registered under MPID Act along with provisions of IPC. There is every possibility that after leaving the Country, the applicant will not return back, in such circumstances, she prayed to reject the application.
4. I have considered the submissions of both sides. Conditions were imposed long back i.e. in the year 2020 and 2021. It appears from the record that though the provisions of MPID Act are invoked Rgd.
Order
against the applicant in both the first information reports, however, the applicant has abided the said conditions since 2020 and 2021. In such circumstances, I am of the considered opinion that the applicant can be permitted to travel Thailand/Pataya, as stated by him in paragraph no.9 of his applications, from 01.12.2026 to 25.12.2026. Hence, the following order.
ORDER
(a) Criminal Applications are allowed and disposed of.
(b) The Investigating Officer/Incharge Police Station Officer, shall release the pass-port of the applicant on 09.11.2026.
(c) The applicant shall thereafter book tickets (to and fro), and again surrender the pass-port after booking the tickets till 15.11.2026. The Investigating Officer is further directed to handover the pass-port to the applicant before three days of his scheduled travel.
(d) The applicant is permitted to travel Thailand / Pataya, till 25.12.2026, and after his return on 25.12.2026, shall again surrender the pass-port on 28.12.2026 to the Investigating Officer. JUDGE Rgd. Signed by: R.G. Dhuriya (RGD) Designation: Senior Pvt. Secretary Date: 05/11/2026 17:43:25
