IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JAIPUR BENCH JAIPUR ORDER S.B. Criminal Misc. Bail Application No. 6828/2009 Om Prakash vs. State of Rajasthan Dated : 11.09.2009 HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE MAHESH BHAGWATI Mr. Sanjay Singhal, for the petitioner. Mr. Amit Punia, Public Prosecutor for the State. This order governs the disposal of bail application filed under Section 439 of Cr.P.C. by Mr. Sanjay Singhal Advocate on behalf of the applicant Om Prakash pertaining to F.I.R. No. 293/2009 at police station Chhabra, District Baran, in the offences under Sections 457 and 354 of IPC as also Section 3(1)(XI) of SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. 2. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Public Prosecutor appearing for the State and perused the material on record. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner has canvassed that the FIR of this case has been lodged after an inordinate delay of five days. The police, after completion of investigation, has filed the charge-sheet in the court, which is pending trial. Both the complainant and the petitioner are the Jeep drivers and they have been nurturing professional rivalry since long. It is the reason that the complainant has falsely implicated him in this case. The petitioner has been in custody for quite a long time, hence, he may be granted indulgence of bail. 4. Learned Public Prosecutor appearing for the State has opposed the bail petition. 5. Having reflected over the submissions made at the bar and scanned the relevant material available on record, I, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, do feel inclined to grant bail to the accused petitioner. 6. It is, therefore, ordered that the accused petitioner Om Prakash S/o. Shrilal in F.I.R. No. 293/2009 at police station Chhabra, District Baran, shall be released on bail on furnishing a personal bond each in the sum of Rs.10,000/-together with two surety bonds each in the sum of Rs. 5,000/- to the satisfaction of the learned trial Court with the stipulation that he shall appear before that Court on all dates of hearing and as and when called upon to do so till the trial is concluded.
