ORDER
This first post-arrest application under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure has been filed on behalf of the applicant for grant of bail, who is behind the bars since 05.03.2022 in connection with Crime No.136/2021 registered at Police Station Itarsi, District Narmadapuram (M.P.) for the offence punishable under Sections 379, 411, 413, 414, 419, 420, 467, 468, 471, 481, 120-B, 201, 34 of IPC.
Learned counsel for the applicant points out that as per the portrayal of prosecution's case, the applicant was found involved in theft of cars and was 2 one of the members of coterie involved in committing alike crime. He submits that other accused persons who were sailing on the same boat have been admitted to bail by this Court. Ergo, he prays that the applicant may also be admitted to bail.
In contrast, counsel for the State opposes the application and disputes that the applicant has a similar involvement in the crime, but highlights that his role was vital and crucial.
Considering the overall facts and circumstances, including the fact that other co-accused have been admitted to bail and that the trial is on its way to determine the actual role of the applicant in the crime, at this stage I am inclined to enlarge the applicant on bail. Therefore, without commenting anything on the merits of the case, this application is allowed. It is directed that the applicant be released on bail upon his furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs.1,00,000/- (Rupees One Lakh) with one solvent surety of the like amount to the satisfaction of the trial Court concerned for his appearance on the dates given by it.
I t is further directed that the applicant shall abide by the conditions enumerated in Section 437(3) of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
Certified copy as per rules.
