Heard Shri Vipul Sharma, the learned counsel for the applicant and Shri G.S. Sandhu, the learned G.A. for the State. The applicant has been caught in a trap case. The applicant is a Tax Collector and it is alleged that he had demanded a sum of ` 10,000/- in order to get the mutation of the complainant done. The submission of the learned counsel for the applicant is that being a Tax Collector, he had nothing to do with the mutation proceedings and, consequently, prima-facie it appears that the applicant has been falsely implicated. The Court finds that the applicant is in jail for more than three months. Consequently, without commenting any further on the merit of the case, the applicant is entitled to be enlarged on bail. Let the applicant be enlarged on bail in F.I.R. No. 13 of 2010, U/S 7 and 13 (1) (d) read with 13 (2) Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, on his executing a personal bond and furnishing two sureties each of the like amount to the satisfaction of Magistrate concerned.
