under sections 457 and 435 of IPC and under section 3/4 of

allowed.

This is fourth application under section 439 of Cr.P.C.
First application of the applicant was dismissed, as
withdrawn in MCRC No.1320/2015 vide order dated
19.02.2015. The second application was dismissed on merit
in MCRC No.3050/2015 vide order dated 28.04.2015. The
third application was filed on the ground that the prosecutrix
is not appearing before the Court, therefore, bail may be
granted to the present applicant. While disposing of the
application, following observations were made and directions
were issued:-
Accordingly, this third application under
section 439 of Cr.P.C. is dismissed as not
tenable with direction to the trial Judge to take
suitable measures for service of summons and
bailable warrants on the witnesses. A copy of
this order be also sent to the concerning
Superintendent of Police with direction to
ensure that the concerned Station Incharge of
the police station should keep the witnesses
present before the trial Judge on the date fixed
for prosecution evidence. The applicant is given
a liberty to file fresh application after six
months if the prosecution witnesses do not
appear before the trial Judge.
After these directions, the prosecutrix was examined before
the court on 13.10.2015. In her statement, she did not support the
prosecution story at all. She completely turned hostile and even
while she was cross examined in detail by the Public Prosecutor,
she did not support the prosecution story.
Now this fourth application is filed on the ground that as
the prosecutrix has not supported the prosecution story, there is
no possibility of conviction in this case, therefore, this bail is
sought on the ground that as there is no possibility of conviction,
no benefit would arise if the present applicant would be kept
under custody.
After taking into consideration the statements of the
prosecutrix recorded before the court and all other relevant facts
and circumstances of the case, this fourth application under
section 439 of Cr.P.C. for grant of bail is allowed.
It is directed that the applicant shall be released on bail on
his furnishing a personal bond of Rs.50,000/- (Rs. Fifty
Thousand only) and one solvent surety of the like amount to the
satisfaction of the concerned Magistrate for his appearance on all
the dates of hearing as may be directed in this regard during trial.
He is further directed that on being so released on bail, he
would comply with the conditions enumerated under section

The accused/applicant was arrested by the Police
Station - Hira Nagar, District - Indore in Crime No.443/2015

Case diary is available.
This is first application filed by the applicant under
section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for grant of
bail.
The accused/applicant was arrested by the Police
Station - Jawad, District - Neemuch in Crime No.276/2015
under sections 302 and 201 of IPC.
According to the prosecution story, the deceased
Govardhan was taken by the present applicant for drinking
liquor alongwith prosecution witness Karulal. All the three
persons were consuming liquor near the village tank. Present
applicant was suspicious about relationship of deceased
Govardhan with his wife. It is alleged that after consuming
liquor, the deceased insisted that he would sleep in the house
of the present applicant on which present applicant got
furious. It is further alleged that prosecution witness Karulal
left them drinking liquor and came back. After that,
according to the prosecution, present applicant took the
deceased Govardhan and in a pit near the tank, he committed
murder of the deceased by hitting him with stones. Dead
body in highly decomposed state was found after three days
and thereafter, statements of three witnesses Chhaganlal, who
is real brother of the deceased, Karulal, who was consuming
liquor with the deceased and the present applicant and left
them drinking and also Ramchandra, the shop owner from
where they purchased the liquor, were recorded on
18.07.2015. Thereafter present applicant was arrested on
21.07.2015. On his memorandum, blood stained clothes of
the present applicant which he was wearing at the time of
incident, were recovered.
Learned counsel for the State opposes the application.
Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the
deceased was consuming liquor with the present applicant on
14.07.2015, however, his dead body was recovered only on
17.07.2015. Meanwhile, no case of missing person was
reported by the family members of the deceased. No
explanation has been given by the prosecution as to why, no
report was lodged. The evidence in respect of last seen
together is also not very convincing, as the prosecution
witness Karulal, who was with them, left their company at
about 5:30 pm. After which whether, they remained there or
they also parted company, is not clear. Only prosecution
witness Ramchandra stated that he saw both of them going
from the tank after drinking liquor.
So far as the recovery of blood stained clothes are
concerned, counsel for the applicant alleged that draft letter
through which the seized property was sent to FSL, Gwalior,
shows that blood stained clothes were seized on 17.07.2015,
however, present applicant was arrested on 21.07.2015. His
memorandum under section 27 of the Evidence Act was also
prepared on 21.07.2015, therefore, there is no question of
seizure before 21.07.2015 and this according to him, creates
doubt.
I have gone through the case diary.
So far as the evidence in respect of last seen together is
concerned, there are ample evidence to show that he was last
seen alive with the present applicant and soon thereafter, as
per time assessed by the doctor in the postmortem report, the
deceased died. Therefore, at this stage, no doubt can be
created on this evidence. Similarly, so far as mentioning of
date in the draft letter for sending material to FSL is
concerned, same appears to be typographical error which can
be clarified at the time of evidence.
In this view of the matter, taking all the facts and
circumstances of the case in totality, I find no case is made
out for grant of bail to the present applicant.
The application is accordingly, dismissed.

Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act.
According to the prosecution story, on 05.08.2015, the
prosecutrix was going to her school alongwith her two brothers.
It is alleged that present applicant alongwith other co-accused
caught hold of her and took her with them. Thereafter, during
night, co-accused Prabhu committed rape on her.
So far as the present applicant is concerned, it is stated that
in the village - Nanankhedi, she was kept by the co-accused
Prabhu in the residence of present applicant.
Arguments heard, case diary perused.
Learned counsel for the State opposes the application and
submits that the prosecutrix was only 15 years and 3 months old
at the time of incident.

story. He was not the main accused. The prosecutrix was taken as
per the customs prevailing in such tribes.

Chhatripura, District - Indore in Crime No.257/2015 under
sections 307/34, 394, 397 of IPC and under section 25 of the
Arms Act.
According to the prosecution story, on 07.06.2015 at about
9:00 pm, when the complainant was coming back to his house
after selling vegetables, three accused persons were standing with
Activa two wheeler vehicle. It is alleged that one of the boy
inflicted knife injury on his abdomen but he did not stop to
continue towards his house and narrated the incident to Sunil and
Jitendra, who came back on the spot where they saw that the
miscreants inflicted knife injuries on Ganesh Sahoo and Rahul
Pagare, who were shifted to the hospital. The matter was reported
to the police against unknown persons under section 307 of IPC.
Subsequently, present applicant was arrested.
According to counsel for the applicant, there was no
mention of money in his memorandum under section 27 of the
Evidence Act. There was also no identification parade conducted
though, the incident took place at 9:00 pm when it was dark. The
knife recovered on his information, was not used in commission
of the crime. He further submits that co-accused Pammu @
Shubham was granted bail by this Court in MCRC
No.8349/2015 vide order dated 22.09.2015.
Learned counsel for the State opposes the application on
the ground that the incident took place at 9:00 pm and in FIR, it
was mentioned that due to darkness, complainant could not
recognized the miscreants.
Arguments heard, case diary perused.
Taking into consideration all the facts and circumstances
of the case, without commenting on the merits of the case, I
am of the view that it is a fit case for grant of bail. The
application filed under section 439 of the Cr.P.C. is allowed.
It is directed that the applicant shall be released on bail on

is stated that on 12.07.2015, she came to the police station
alongwith her parents and there, Dastayabi Panchnama was
made and she was handed over to her parents. While in her
statement made under section 161 of Cr.P.C., she stated that
police came to Uttar Pradesh and brought present applicant

01.06.2015 that his daughter was missing and on his report,
Crime No.77/2015 under section 363 of IPC was registered
by the concerning police station. On investigation, it was
found that on the night of 01.06.2015, when the complainant
woke-up at 6 o'clock in the morning, he found her daughter
missing. The prosecutrix was recovered on 05.06.2015 and in
her statement made to the police, she stated that she was
kidnapped by the present applicant alongwith two other co-
accused and there, it is alleged that present applicant
committed rape on her.
4. A report of Probation Officer, District - Dhar, was
sought. The report has been submitted by learned counsel for
the State before this Court. In the statement, it is stated that
the juvenile in conflict with law is facing trial before the
Juvenile Justice Board for the last 5 months. He is interested
in his studies and he is repenting what he had done. He stated
before the Probation Officer that the prosecutrix went with
him with her consent and also told him that if he would not
take her, she would commit suicide. He was not knowing that
taking her, would harm him and he promised the Probation
Officer that in future, he will not repeat the mistake. Finally,
the Probation Officer recommended custody of the present
applicant to be handed over to his guardian.
5. Looking to the benevolent provisions of the Juvenile
Justice Act and the report of the Probation Officer in respect
of the boys in conflict with law, this revision stands allowed.

take care that he will not indulge in any kind of criminal
activities, his custody be handed over to their guardian.
7. It is further directed that guardian and the juvenile in
conflict with law will produce the juvenile before the
Probation Officer once in fifteen days and he would keep an
eye on his conduct during the period of his custody to his
guardian. If any unsocial activity is observed on the part of
the juvenile, the same should be reported to the Juvenile
Justice Board and the Juvenile Justice Board is at liberty to
take suitable action for cancellation of this order.
8. With the aforesaid observations and directions, the
revision stands disposed of.

This common order shall govern disposal of MCRC
Nos.8540/2015 and 9117/2015.
The applicant namely - Sameer @ Raja Barik in MCRC
No.8540/2015, according to the prosecution story, was
driving the motorcycle while the applicant namely - Asjad
Khan in MCRC No.9117/2015, was the main conspirator of
crime.
The accused/applicants were arrested by the Police
Station - Station Road, District - Ratlam in Crime
No.339/2013 under section 307/34 of IPC and under
section 25, 27 of Arms Act.
According to the prosecution story on 29.07.2013,
complainant Rajesh Katariya was chased by two persons on
motorcycle and they also fired gunshots on him, due to
which, he sustained some injuries. Subsequently, present
applicant was arrested on the information given by co-
accused under section 27 of the Evidence Act. On his
memorandum under section 27 of the Evidence Act, two live
cartridges were seized.
Learned counsel for the State opposes the application.
Arguments heard, case diary perused.
Learned counsel for the applicant in MCRC
No.8540/2015 submits that the applicant was arrested after
two years of the incident. He further submits that he has
falsely been implicated in this case.
Learned counsel for the applicant in MCRC
No.9117/2015 submits that the applicant has falsely been
implicated in this case merely because he had filed Writ
Petition No.2807/2015 before this Court in which it was
alleged that the police wrongfully put lock on his shop. The
Court ordered opening of the shop and due to this reason, the
police was keeping grudge against him. He has filed relevant
papers and orders of the writ petition filed by him.
Taking all the facts and circumstance of the case into
consideration, without commenting on the merits of the
case, I am of the view that it is a fit case for grant of bail.
The application filed under section 439 of the Cr.P.C. is
allowed.
It is directed that the applicants shall be released on bail
on their furnishing a personal bond of Rs.50,000/- (Rs. Fifty
Thousand only) and one solvent surety each of the like
amount to the satisfaction of the concerned Magistrate for
their appearance on all the dates of hearing as may be
directed in this regard during trial.

Shri Manoj Saxena, learned counsel for the applicant.
Shri Mukesh Parwal, learned counsel for the
respondent/State.
Case diary is available.
This is second bail application filed by the applicant
under section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for
grant of bail. His first application was dismissed as
withdrawn in MCRC No.6544/2015 vide order dated
30.07.2015.
Now this second application is filed on two grounds.
One being that co-accused Hukum Singh was granted bail by
this Court in MCRC No.6072/2015 vide order dated
23.07.2015 and according to counsel for the applicant same
charges were framed by the trial Court under sections 366,
363 and 376/34 of IPC.
The accused/applicant was arrested by the Police
Station-Susner, District-Agar in Crime No.71/2015 under
sections 363, 366 and 376/34 of IPC.
According to prosecution story, Shankar Singh is
husband of prosecutrix. It is alleged that he alongwith present
applicant Hukum Singh and another co-accused Gopal took
her, removed her silver jwellery then she was beaten and
handed over to Gopal, who took her to various places and
committed rape on her. According to statement under section
164 of Cr.P.C. of prosecutrix, she also involved her husband,
the present applicant in commission of crime.
Learned counsel for the objector submits that the
prosecutrix has entered into compromise with the present
applicant. She has received a sum of Rs.3,10,000/- by way of
final settlement and for this purpose, copy of the affidavit
executed by the prosecutrix is filed with the application. He
further submits that the prosecutrix has no objection if bail is
granted to the present applicant.
Learned counsel for the State opposed the application
on the ground that case of the present applicant is different
than that of the co-accused Hukum Singh, who was granted
bail by this Court. Present applicant is husband of the
prosecutrix, who took her and himself handed her over to the
co-accused Gopal, who committed rape on her.
Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the
prosecutrix remained in company of the co-accused Gopal
and never complained to anybody. She was infact a
consenting party and the only dispute was that he did not pay
her money and married again to other woman. He further
submits that there is no progress in trial and he has submitted
certified copy of the order-sheet of the trial Court.
Arguments heard. Case diary perused.
After going through the case diary, taking into
consideration all the facts and circumstances of the case and
the documents produced by counsel for the objector, without
commenting on the merits of the case, I am of the view that it
is a fit case for grant of bail. The application filed under
section 439 of the Cr.P.C. is allowed.
It is directed that the applicant shall be released on bail
on his furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs.50,000/-

Shri AM Mathur, learned Sr. Counsel with Shri Abhinav
Dhanodkar, learned counsel for the petitioner.
Shri CL Yadav, learned Sr. Counsel with Shri OP Solanki,
learned counsel for the respondent.
A question was raised before both the Counsels by this
Court and their respective views were sought on the following
question:-
2. "At what stage of trial, notices are to be issued to the
persons, who have been proved at the trial guilty of any corrupt
practice and who are to be named under section 99 (1) (a) (II) of
the Representation of People Act, 1951".
3. Learned Senior Counsel appearing for the petitioner
referred judgment of Hon'ble the Supreme Court in the case of
Dwarka Prasad Mishra Vs. Kamal Narayan Sharma and
another reported in 1970 MPLJ 872. In this case, for
Shyamacharan Shukla, who was then printer, proprietor,
publisher and keeper of the Mahakoshal Press, a Hindi daily was
sought to be named under section 99 of the Representation of the
People Act (hereinafter referred to as the 'Act'). Hon'ble the
Supreme Court made following observations in paragraphs 36 to
38 of the judgment:-
36. It is however necessary, before we finally
decide this appeal, to deal with the application
which is made by the respondents who were on
their own application impleaded in this appeal
Mr. Chagla counsel for those respondents
contends that the Court was bound to name
Shyamacharan Shukla, printer, publisher,
proprietor and keeper of Mahakoshal Press-a
Hindi daily-under section 99 of the
Representation of the People Act, 1951. Section
99 (1) of the Act, as it then stood, provided:
(1) At the time of making an order under
section 98 the Tribunal shall also make an
order--
(a) where any charge is made in the
petition of any corrupt practice having
been committed at the election,
recording--
(i) a finding whether any corrupt
practice has or has not been proved to
have been committed by, or with the
consent of, any candidate or his agent
at the election, and the nature of that
corrupt practice; and
(ii) the names of all persons, if
any,who have been proved at the trial
to have been guilty of any corrupt
practice and the nature of that
practice; and
(b)................................
Provided that a person who is not a
party to the petition shall not be
named in the order under sub-
clause,(ii)of clause (a) unless-
(a) he has been given notice to appear
before the Tribunal and to show cause
why he should not be so named; and
(b) if he appears in pursuance of the
notice he has been given an
opportunity of cross-examining any
witness who has already been
examined by the Tribunal and has
given evidence against him, of calling
evidence in his defence and of being
heard."
The High Court recorded in paragraph 199 (4)
& (5) of their judgment their conclusion as
follows :
"(4) It is proved that the
Mahakoshal a Hindi daily, published
from Raipur, and Shyamacharan
Shukla, who was its proprietor,
publisher, printer and keeper of the
Press, were both agents of the
respondent within the meaning of
section 123 of the Act.
(5) It is proved that three false
statements (Annexures 1, 11, 111)
were published in the Mahakoshal,
issues of the 12th and 26th April and
4th May, 1963, in relation to-the
personal character and conduct of the
petitioner; that all the three were false;
and that the respondent did not
believe any of them to be true. It is
held that they were statements of the
fact and that they were reasonably
calculated to prejudice the election
prospects of the petitioner.
At the hearing an application was made before
the High Court that a proceeding should be
drawn up under S. 99 of the Act against
Shyamacharan, Shukla and a notice should be
issued to him why he should not be named as
having committed corrupt practice under s.
123 (4) of the Act. The High Court observed
that the three statements (Annexures I, II & III)
were published in the Mahakoshal of which
Shyamacharan Shukla was the proprietor,
publisher, printer and keeper. The High Court
further observed that Shyamacharan Shukla was
the agent of Mishra within the meaning of
section 123 (4) but Shyamacharan Shukla was
not and could not be made a party to the
election petition. But the High Court was of the
view that when the appeal was placed for
hearing in April 1968, Mishra had raised
certain preliminary objections and Sharma had
also urged those preliminary contentions all of
which were decided by the order dated May 4,
1968, and it was the, duty of Sharma on that
occasion to satisfy the High Court, prima facie,
that Shyamacharan Shukla had committed a
corrupt practice under S. 123 (4) of the Act so
that notice could be issued to him 'and
opportunity to which he was entitled under
section 99 of the Act may have been made
available to him. But that was not done and in
the opinion of the Court for avoiding further
delay the application should be rejected.
37. We are unable to agree with the view so
propounded by the High Court. Under section
99 of the Act the Court has no discretion in the
matter, if the Court was of the view that any
person who is proved at the trial to have been
guilty of any corrupt practice, not to name that
person. It is true that preliminary objections
were argued at an earlier stage, but Sharma
could not before the appeal was heard ask the
Court to issue a notice under section 99 of the
Act on the footing that his case which was
rejected by the Tribunal will be accepted. The
duty under the Act is cast upon the Court or the
Tribunal, and on the ground that the party has
not applied for a notice, the High Court could
not avoid the obligation imposed by statute to
take proceeding under section 99, against the
person proved at the trial to have been guilty
of corrupt practice and to name him. We fail
also to appreciate the ground on which the
High Court has referred to delay been an
"outweighing factor". Shyamacharan Shukla
was however not a party to the proceeding
and before he could be named a notice must
go to him under section 99 of the Act.
38. We direct that, the proceeding be remanded
to the High Court and the High Court do give
notice to Shyamacharan Shukla under section
99 of the Representation of the People Act,
1951 to appear and to show cause why he
should not be named for committing corrupt
practices. If Shyamacharan Shukla appears in
pursuance of the show cause notice he will be
entitled to an opportunity of cross-examining
witnesses who have already been examined by
the Tribunal and has given evidence against
him and he will be entitled to give evidence
in his defence and of being heard. The High
Court to report to this Court within three
months from the date on which the papers are
received by it.
4. Placing reliance on the observations made by Hon'ble
the Supreme Court, learned Senior Counsel for the petitioner
submits that in para 37 of the judgment, the words used are
'who is proved at the trial to have been guilty of any corrupt
practice' implies that first finding has to be given by the
Court that the person to be named is guilty of any corrupt
practice and thereafter, notice to be issued to him and after
giving him opportunity to cross examine the witness, who
deposed against him and also adducing necessary evidence
on his behalf, final finding about him should be given.
5. Learned Senior Counsel appearing for the respondent
however, disagrees with the submissions made by learned
Senior Counsel for the petitioner. He placed reliance on the
judgment of Hon'ble the Supreme Court in the case of
Mahohar Joshi Vs. Nitin Bhaurao Patil and another
reported in AIR 1996 Supreme Court 796. In this case,
Hon'ble the Supreme Court dealt with the effect of non-
compliance of section 99 of the Act. From paragraphs 49 to
58, Hon'ble the Supreme Court laid down the principles
governing procedure under section 99 of the Act. The
relevant paragraphs of the judgment be reproduced here as
under:-
49. Before we take up for consideration
the corrupt practice attributed to the appellant
himself in para 30 of the election petition based
on his own speech on 24.2.1990, it would be
appropriate at this stage to refer to the argument
based on Section 99 of the R.P. Act. Non-
compliance of Section 99 of the R.P. Act.
50. Admittedly, no notice was given to
Bal Thackeray, Pramod Mahajan or any other
person against whom allegation was made of
commission of corrupt practice in the election
petition, even though the High Court has held
those corrupt practices to be proved for the
purpose of declaring the appellant's election to
be void on the ground contained in Section
100(1)(b) of the R.P. Act. We would now
indicate the effect of the combined reading of
Sections 98 and 99 of the R.P. Act and the
requirement of notice under section 99 to all
such persons before decision of the election
petition by making an order under Section 98 of
the R.P. Act.
51. The combined effect of Sections 98
and 99 of the R.P. Act may now be seen. These
provisions are as under:-
"98. Decision of the High Court.- At the
conclusion of the trial of an election petition the
High Court shall make an order -
(a) dismissing the election petition; or
(b) declaring the election of all or any of
the returned candidates to be void; or
(c) declaring the election of all or any of
the returned candidates to be void and the
petitioner or any other candidate to have been
duly elected.
99. Other orders to be made by the High Court. -
(1) At the time of making an order under section
98 the High Court shall also make an order -
(a) where any charge is made in the petition of
any corrupt practice having been committed at
the election, recording -
(i) a finding whether any corrupt practice has or
has not been proved to have been committed at
the election, and the nature of that corrupt
practice; and
(ii) the names of all persons, if any, who have
been proved at the trial to have been quality of
any corrupt practice and the nature of that
practice; and
(b) fixing the total amount of costs payable and
specifying the persons by and to whom costs
shall be paid:
Provided that a person who is not a party to the
petition shall not be named in the order under
sub-clause (ii) of clause (a) unless -
(a) he has been given notice to appear before the
High Court and to show cause why he should not
be so named; and
(b) if he appears in pursuance of the notice, he
has been given an opportunity of cross-
examining any witness who has already been
examined by the High Court and has given
evidence against him, of calling evidence in his
defence and of being heard.
(2) In this section and in section 100, the
expression "agent" has the same meaning as in
section 123."
52. The opening words in section 98 are "At the
conclusion of the trial of an election petition the
High Court shall make an order". There can be
no doubt that section 98 contemplates the
making of an order thereunder in the decision of
the High Court rendered `at the conclusion of the
trial of an election petition'. Declaration of the
election of any returned candidate to be void in
accordance with clause (b) is clearly to be made
in the decision of the High Court rendered at the
conclusion of the trial of an election petition and
not at an intermediate state. Clauses (a), (b) and
(c) in section 98 contemplate the different kinds
of orders which can be made by the High Court
in its decision at the conclusion of the trial which
has the effect of disposing of the election
petition in the High Court. There is nothing in
section 98 to permit the High Court to decide the
election petition piecemeal and to declare the
election of any returned candidate to be void at
an intermediate stage of the trial when any part
of the trial remains to be concluded.
53. Sub-section (1) of section 99 begins with the
words "At the time of making an order under
section 98 the High Court shall also make an
order" of the kind mentioned in clauses (a) and
(b) therein. It is amply clear that the order which
can be made under clauses (a) and (b) of sub-
section (1) of section 99 is required to be made
`at the time of making an order under section 98'.
As earlier indicated, an order under section 98
can be made only at the conclusion of the trial.
There can be no doubt that the order which can
be made under sub-section (1) of section 99 has,
therefore, to be made only at the conclusion of
the trial of an election petition in the decision of
the High Court made by an order disposing of
the election petition in one of the modes
prescribed in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of section
98. This alone is sufficient to indicate that the
requirement of section 99 is to be completed
during the trial of the election petition and the
final order under section 99 has to be made in
the decision of the High Court rendered under
section 98 at the conclusion of the trial of the
election petition.
54. Clause (a) of sub-section (1) of section 99
provides for the situation "where any charge is
made in the petition of any corrupt practice
having been committed at the election". In that
case, it requires that at the time of making an
order under section 98, the High Court shall also
make an order recording a finding whether any
corrupt practice has or has not been proved to
have been committed at the election and the
nature of that corrupt practice; and the names of
all persons, if any, who have been proved at the
trial to have been quality of any corrupt practice
and the nature of that corrupt practice. Clause (b)
further requires the fixing of the total amount of
costs payable and specifying the person by and
to whom costs shall be paid. The net result is
that where any charge is made in the petition of
any corrupt practice having been committed at
the election, the High Court shall `at the time of
making an order under section 98' also make an
order recording a finding whether any corrupt
practice has or has not been proved to have been
committed at the election and the nature of that
corrupt practice; and where the charge of corrupt
practice has been found proved, it must also
record the names of all persons, if any, who have
been proved at the trial to have been quality of
any corrupt practice and the nature of that
practice. thus the trial is only one at the end of
which the order made by the High Court must
record the names of all persons, if any, who have
been proved at the trial to have been quality of
the corrupt practice and the nature of that
practice.
55. It follows that the High Court cannot make
an order under section 98 recording a finding of
proof of corrupt practice against the returned
candidate alone and on that basis declare the
election of the returned candidate to be void and
then proceed to comply with the requirement of
section 99 in the manner stated therein with a
view to decide at a later stage whether any other
person also is quality of that corrupt practice for
the purpose of naming him then under Section
99 of the R.P. Act. It is equally clear that the
High Court has no option in the matter to decide
whether it will proceed under section 99 against
the other persons alleged to be quality of that
corrupt practice along with the returned
candidate inasmuch as the requirement of section
99 is mandatory since the finding recorded by
the High Court requires it to name all persons
proved at the trial to have been quality of the
corrupt practice. The expression "the names of
all persons, if any, who have been proved at the
trial to have been quality of any corrupt practice"
in sub-clause (ii) of clause (a) of sub-section (1)
of section 99 clearly provides for such proof
being required `at the trial' which means `the
trial of an election petition' mentioned in section
98, at the conclusion of which alone the order
contemplated under section 98 can be made.
There is no room for taking the view that the
trial of the election petition for declaring the
election of the returned candidate to be void
under section 98 can be concluded first and then
the proceedings under section 99 commenced for
the purpose of deciding whether any other
person is also to be named as being quality of the
corrupt practice of which the returned candidate
has earlier been held quality leading to his
election being declared void.
56. The rationale is obvious. Where the returned
candidate is alleged to be quality of a corrupt
practice in the commission of which any other
person has participated with him or the candidate
is to be held vicariously liable for a corrupt
practice committed by any other person with his
consent, a final verdict on that question can be
rendered only at the end of the trial, at one time,
after the inquiry contemplated under section 99
against the other person, after notice to him, has
also been concluded. Particularly, in a case
where liability is fastened on the candidate
vicariously for the act of another person, unless
that act is found proved against the doer of that
act, the question of recording a finding on that
basis against the returned candidate cannot arise.
Viewed differently, if the final verdict has
already been rendered against the returned
candidate in such a case, the opportunity
contemplated by section 99 by an inquiry after
notice to the other person is futile since the
verdict has already been given. On the other
hand, if the question is treated as open, a
conflicting verdict after inquiry under section 99
in favour of the notice would lead to an
absurdity which could not be attributed to the
legislature.
57. The plain language of Section 98 and 99 of
the R.P. Act indicates the construction thereof
made by us and this is also supported by the
likely outcome of a different construction which
is an absurd result and must, therefore, be
rejected. The High Court has overlooked the
obvious position in law in taking a different
view. No notice under section 99 was given by
the High Court before making the final order
under Section 98 of the R.P. Act declaring the
election to be void. This is a fatal defect.
58.This alone is sufficient to indicate that apart
from the reasons given earlier, the election of the
appellant in the present case could not be
declared void by making an order under section
98 on the ground contained in Section 100(1)(b)
of the R.P. Act without prior compliance of
section 99. Absence of notice under Section 99
of the R.P. Act vitiates the final order made
under Section 98 by the High Court declaring the
election to be void.
6. Further, he relies on the judgment of Hon'ble the Supreme
Court in the case of Pramod Mahajan Vs. Smt. Celine D'Silva
and another reported in AIR 1996 Supreme Court 826. In
paragraph 12 of this judgment, Hon'ble the Supreme Court
explained the view taken in the case of Dwarka Prasad Mishra
(supra) and observed thus:-
The High Court appears to have misread the
decision of this Court in D.P. Mishra vs. Kamal
Narayan Sharma and Anr., 1971 (1) SCR 8, to
form the opinion that the course adopted by it
was permissible under Section 99 of the R.P.
Act. The question in that case was of the failure
to issue notice under Section 99 of the R.P. Act
to a person alleged to have committed the
corrupt practice for which the returned
candidate also was guilty. The High Court, in
the appeal, did not comply with the requirement
of section 99 for avoiding further delay. This
Court rejected that view as incorrect and held
as under :
"We are unable to agree with the view so
propounded by the High Court. Under section
99 of the Act the Court has no discretion in the
matter, if the Court was of the view that any
person who is proved at the trial to have been
guilty of any corrupt practice, not to name that
person. It is true that preliminary objections
were argued at an earlier stage, but Sharma
could not before the appeal was heard ask the
Court to issue a notice under section 99 of the
Act on the footing that his case which was
rejected by the Tribunal will be accepted. The
duty under the Act is cast upon the Court or the
Tribunal, and on the ground that the party has
not applied for a notice, the High Court could
not avoid the obligation imposed by statute to
take proceeding under section 99 against the
person proved at the trial to have been guilty of
corrupt practice and to name him. We fail also
to appreciate the ground on which the High
Court has referred to delay being an
"outweighing factor". Shyamacharan Shukla
was however not a party to the proceeding and
before he could be named a notice must go to
him under section 99 of the Act.
We direct that the proceeding be remanded to
the High Court and the High Court do give
notice to Shyamacharan Shukla under section
99 of the Representation of the People Act,
1951, to appear and to show cause why he
should not be named for committing corrupt
practices. If Shyamacharan Shukla appears in
pursuance of the show cause notice he will be
entitled to an opportunity of cross- examining
witnesses who have already been examined by
the Tribunal and has given evidence against
him and he will be entitled to give evidence in
his defence and of being heard....."
There is nothing in this decision to support the
view taken by the High Court that it could
decide the election petition and make an order
under Section 98 declaring the election of the
returned candidate to be void and then proceed
under Section 99 of the R.P. Act against the
other persons.
7. Accordingly, as observed by by Hon'ble the Supreme Court
in the case of Pramod Mahajan (supra), notices are to be issued
during trial and not at conclusion of the trial as submitted by
learned Senior Counsel for the petitioner. In this view of the
matter, the question is answered that notices are to be issued
during trial and when a particular witness is examined, who
deposes against a particular person involving him in commission
of corrupt practice then, the person should be given an
opportunity to cross examine the witness. After petitioner and
respondent close their evidence, these persons called the notices'
should be given an opportunity to adduce their evidence in
defence and finally while passing final order under section 98 of
the Act though persons, who proved to be guilty of corrupt
practice should be named under section 99 of the Act. In the
present case, following persons are named in the petition and,
therefore, they should be given notice:-
(i) Gajendra Singh Baghel
(ii) Vikram Verma
(iii) Ashok Jain
(iv) Sanjay Vaishnav
(v) Devendra Patel
(vi) Anku Agrawal
(vii) Vinod Soni
8. Petitioner is directed to supply necessary details and pay PF
for issuance of notices to these persons within a week under
section 99 of the Act. Alongwith the notice relevant portion of
the petition where allegations are made against the above
persons, should also be enclosed. Petitioner is directed to supply
copies of the relevant portion for service of notice.
9. This apart, the petitioner is directed to name any other
person to whom notice is to be issued. It is further observed that
apart from these persons if name of any other person would evolve
during recording of the evidence he will also be given notice
immediately after recording of evidence of that particular witness.
10. The question is answered, accordingly.
11. On 08.10.2015, learned Senior Counsel appearing for the
petitioner submits that he would file an application under Order 18
Rule 3(a) of CPC.
12. Office is directed to list the matter on 29.10.2015 for
consideration of the application filed by the petitioner under Order
18 Rule 3(a) of CPC.

Shri I. Anwar, learned counsel for the applicant.
Shri Mukesh Parwal, learned counsel for the
respondent/State.
Case diary is available.
This is first application under section 438 of Cr.P.C.
filed on behalf of present applicant for grant of anticipatory
bail.
The applicant apprehends his arrest by Police Station -
Dhamnod, District - Dhar in Crime No.399/2015 under
sections 363, 344, 376 (2) (N) and 506 of IPC.
According to the prosecution story, on 10.07.2015, the
prosecutrix went behind her residence to answer call of
nature. There, it is alleged that co-accused Rama came and he
placed his hand on her mouth and threatened her that if she
raised cry, he would kill her. Thereafter, he took her to the
nearby jungle and to some other places and committed rape
on her. Husband of the prosecutrix lodged complaint of
missing person on 22.06.2015. On 02.08.2015, she appeared
in the police station and she was medically examined and
also her statement under section 161 of Cr.P.C. was recorded.
In her statement given on 02.08.2015, there was no mention
of rape committed by the present applicant. However, on
04.08.2015, her statement under section 164 of Cr.P.C. was
recorded, there she stated that co-accused Rama had physical
relationship with her by consent. However so far as the
present applicant is concerned, she further stated that when
she was taken to the house of the present applicant by co-
accused Rama, present applicant gave money to Rama to
bring liquor and meat and thereafter, present applicant and
also Amar Singh committed rape on her.
Counsel for the applicant submits that present applicant
is falsely implicated in the case due to political rivalry by the
MLA of the area. He was also similarly falsely implicated in
many other cases by the MLA and he filed various paper
cuttings to substantiate his arguments. He further submits that
the prosecutrix was working as a Maid in the house of the
MLA and on his behest, she changed her statement on
04.08.2015 under section 164 of Cr.P.C.
Counsel for the State opposed the application on the
ground that there are allegation of rape against the present
applicant. The crime is serious and against the society at
large and, therefore, anticipatory bail should not be granted to
present applicant.
I have gone through the case diary and heard both the
parties.
It is true that there is improvement in her statement
recorded on 02.08.2015 and 04.08.2015. However, the effect
of improvement in her statements cannot be seen at this
stage, as they are not substantiative evidence and
accordingly, no benefit can be given to the present applicant.
Taking into consideration all the facts and
circumstances of the case, I find that no case is made out for
grant of anticipatory bail to the present applicant.
The application is accordingly, dismissed.
Certified copy as per rules.

Shri Himanshu Thakur, learned counsel for the applicant.
Shri Mukesh Parwal, learned counsel for the
respondent/State.
Case diary is available.
This is first bail application under section 439 Cr.P.C filed on
behalf of the present applicant for grant of bail.
The present applicant was arrested by Police Station- City
Kotwali, District - Mandsaur in Crime No.993/15 for the offence
punishable under section 394 of IPC.
According to the prosecution story, the incident took place
on 14.12.2014 when the complainant and his girlfriend Yashika
Tekwani went to worship Nalchha Mata Temple. They were
talking near a culvert and there, it is alleged that two persons
came on the motorcycle and committed loot on them. They also
inflicted injuries on the complainant and his girlfriend by lathi. A
golden chain weighing 15 gms was snatched from the neck of
Yashika Tekwani and also photo camera, purse etc were looted.
Present applicant was arrested on the information given by the
co-accused Iqbal and subsequently, on his own memorandum
under section 27 of the Evidence Act, some property including
chain was recovered ant this chain was identified by Yashika
Tekwani.
Counsel for the applicant submits that complainant is a
Press Photographer. He took advantage of being associated with
news media and influenced the police. He further submits that
while seizure memo was prepared, he accompanied the police
personnel and it appears from the photograph submitted by the
police alongwith the charge-sheet. He further submits that
charge-sheet has been filed in this case. There are no criminal
antecedents of the present applicant.
Counsel for the State opposed the application.
I have heard counsel for the parties.
Whether, the complainant had any influence over the police
during investigation, can only be asserted after recording of
evidence. At this stage, no adverse inference can be drawn.
Further, the chain seized on memorandum given by the present
applicant was identified by Yashika Tekwani. It is not alleged that
she also accompanied the complainant.
After going through the case diary and taking into
consideration all the facts and circumstances of the case, I find
that no case is made out for grant of bail to the present applicant.
The application is accordingly, dismissed.

Case diary is available.
This is first bail application under section 439 Cr.P.C
filed on behalf of the present applicant for grant of bail.
The present applicant was arrested by Police Station-
Bhavgarh, District - Mandsaur in Crime No.258/15 for the
offence punishable under sections 394, 395 and 397 of IPC.
According to the prosecution story, the incident took
place on 11.06.2015 when the complainant Manoharlal Jain
was coming in a vehicle bearing registration No.MP-44-GA-
0199 which belongs to Rajendra Singh after selling his wheat,
gram and Soyabean. He was having Rs.1.5 lacs in his
possession. There, it is alleged that their vehicle was stopped
by two three persons, who were hiding their face with cloth,
threw chilly powder on them and then committed loot of
Rs.1.5 lacs.
Present applicant was arrested on the memorandum of
co-accused Lakhan in which it is stated that Rs.15,000/- fell
in share of the present applicant. However, after arrest, his
memorandum under section 27 of the Evidence Act was
prepared and only Rs.1500/- were recovered from his
possession.
Arguments heard. Case-diary perused.
Learned counsel for the State opposed the bail
application.
Counsel for the applicant submits that charge-sheet has
been filed. Only Rs.1500/- were recovered. One motorcycle
which was alleged to have been used in commission of crime
was also seized from the present applicant. However,
registration number of this motorcycle was not mentioned in
the FIR.
After perusing the case-diary and taking into
consideration all the facts and circumstances of the case,
without commenting on the merits of the case, I am of the
view that it is a fit case for grant of bail. The application is
allowed.
It is directed that applicant shall be released on bail on
his furnishing a personal bond of Rs.50,000/- (Rs. Fifty
Thousand) and one solvent surety of the like amount to the
satisfaction of the concerned Magistrate for his appearance
on all the dates of hearing as may be directed in this regard

placed his hand on her mouth, dragged her towards Durga
Mata Temple and there, he committed rape on her. He also
slapped her and gave blows by lathi.
Arguments heard. Case-diary perused.

bail.
The applicant apprehends his arrest by Police Station -
Barud, District - Khargone in Crime No.146/2015 under
sections 307, 120-B of IPC and 25, 27 of Arms Act.
According to the prosecution story, in the night of
02.09.2015 at about 2:00 am, complainant Kamal was
attacked by some unknown persons by firing over him
gunshot by 12 bore gun. The crime was registered. During
investigation, on source information, co-accused Dhekaliya
and Deva were arrested. From their possession, 12 bore gun
and some live cartridges were recovered. In their, discloser
memo prepared under section 27 of the Evidence Act, they
disclosed that they attacked on the complainant, as they were
paid Rs.50,000/- by the present applicant Shyam Patidar.
Thus, they were acting as hire assassin and attacked on the
complainant.
Arguments heard. Case diary perused.
Counsel for the State and complainant opposed the
application on the ground that it is a case under section 307
of IPC. Custodial interrogation is required against the present
applicant.
Counsel for the applicant submits that apart from the
discloser memo given by the co-accused under section 27 of
the Evidence Act, no other evidence is available against the
present applicant. Also, the complainant in this case filed an
affidavit in support of present applicant stating therein that
present applicant is suffering from mental ailment. He has no
dispute with the present applicant.
While dismissing the application, the 4th Additional
Sessions Judge observed that this affidavit cannot be taken in
to consideration at this stage.
In the considered opinion of this Court, this affidavit
cannot be taken into consideration at this stage. However,
looking to the evidence available against the present
applicant and also taking into consideration that he is
suffering from mental ailment, this application is allowed.
It is directed that in the event of arrest, the applicant
shall be released on anticipatory bail on his furnishing a
personal bond of Rs.50,000/- (Rs. Fifty Thousand only) and
a solvent surety of the like amount to the satisfaction of the
concerning Magistrate or Arresting Officer as the case may
be, with the following conditions:-
(i) that he shall make himself available for interrogation by a

(ii) that he 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.
(iii) that he would comply with the conditions enumerated

Shri Mukesh Parwal, learned counsel for the
respondent/State.
This is first application under section 438 of Cr.P.C.
filed on behalf of present applicant for grant of anticipatory
bail.
The applicant apprehends his arrest by Police Station -
Depalpur, District - Indore in Crime No.330/2015 under
section 34(2) of MP Excise Act.
According to the prosecution story, on source
information, motorcycle bearing registration No.MP-10-BA-
2598 was intercepted by the police. The motorcycle was
being driven by Sabir Kha and in the gunny bags loaded on
the motorcycle, total 54 bulk liters of contraband country
liquor was found in his possession.
During investigation, on his discloser memo prepared
under section 27 of the Evidence Act, he informed the police
that he brought the contraband country liquor from the
present applicant. However, no legal evidence is available
against him at present.
Arguments heard. Case diary perused.
Counsel for the State opposes the application on the
ground that his custody shall be required, as it has to be
asserted from where he obtains the contraband country liquor
and supplies to various persons.
Counsel for the applicant submits that in the similar
case arising from the similar Police Station - Depalpur, he
was granted anticipatory bail by the Co-ordinate Bench of
this Court in MCRC No.8771/2015 vide order dated
05.10.2015.
However, in the considered opinion of this Court, the
order of granting bail is based on the facts which do not have
value of precedence and, therefore, present case has to be
evaluated on merit. So far as the present case is concerned, it
is true that his custodial interrogation may be required for
asserting the source of the contraband country liquor.
As such, I find that no case is made out for grant of
anticipatory bail to the present applicant.
The application is accordingly, dismissed.

Shri Romesh Dave, learned counsel for the

This application under section 482 of Cr.P.C. is filed against
the order passed by learned Special Judge under NDPS Act,
District - Neemuch in Special Sessions Trial No.01/2014 dated
14.07.2015.
The brief facts relevant for disposal of this case are that the
applicant filed an application before this Court under section 482
of Cr.P.C. in which the Co-ordinate Bench of this Court by order
dated 03.11.2014 issued following directions:-
Present petitioner is permitted to
withdraw the petition with a direction to the
trial Court to consider the averments and
points raised in the petition at the time of
framing of charge alongwith the averments
of charge-sheet.
Learned Special Judge passed the impugned order on
04.12.2014 apparently one month after the order passed by this
Court by which, learned Magistrate framed charges against the
present applicant, however, as directed by this Court, the
averments and points raised in the petition were not taken into
consideration. Thereafter, the applicant again filed an application
before learned Special Judge which was disposed of by order
dated 11.12.2014 stating therein that a criminal court had no
jurisdiction to review on its own order and, therefore, giving
liberty that the order may be challenged in the revision, the
application was dismissed.
Aggrieved by this order, the applicant again approached this
Court in the second round of litigation under section 482 of Cr.P.C.
which was disposed of by this Court in MCRC No.54/2015 vide
order dated 25.06.2015. In this order, following directions were
issued:-
In view of this observation and in the
light of the direction issued by this Court
earlier, this application is allowed. The
impugned order dated 04.12.2014 is set
aside. The matter is remanded back to the
concerning Court with the direction that
learned Special Judge should reconsider the
matter and decide it in the light of the
direction issued by this Court earlier in
MCRC No.7577/2014.
After passing of this order, learned Special Judge passed the
impugned order on 14.07.2015 in which, he again opined that the
point raised by the respondent cannot be taken into consideration
at the stage of filing of charge-sheet and without taking them into
consideration, the impugned order was passed.
It is apparent that learned Special Judge has not taken into
consideration the averments and points raised by the applicant
and without taking into consideration the direction of this Court,
the order was passed and, therefore, it appears proper to set aside
the impugned order and remand the matter back to the Special
Court for reconsideration and pass suitable order as per the
direction issued by this Court.
Accordingly, this application is allowed. The impugned
order is set aside. Learned Special Judge is directed to consider
the averments and points raised by the present applicant and
pass a suitable and detailed order this time.
In case, direction issued by this Court is not followed by the
Special Judge, the matter may be taken as contempt of Court and
necessary proceedings shall be initiated.
With the direction and observation as aforesaid, the
application stands disposed of.
Let copy of this order be placed before the Hon'ble portfolio
Judge and also be sent to the Sessions Judge, Neemuch, for
consideration while writing Confidential Report of the concerning
officer.

Case diary is available.
This is first bail application under section 439 Cr.P.C for
grant of bail.
The present applicant was arrested by Police Station-
Dewas Gate, District - Ujjain in Crime No.30/2015 for the
offence punishable under sections 364, 365, 302 and 201/34
of IPC and under section 3 (2) (5) of SC/ST (Prevention of
Atrocities) Act.
According to the prosecution story, in the intervening
night of 18th and 19th February, 2015 at about 01:00 am,
present applicant alongwith other co-accused committed
murder of deceased Sanjay @ Sanju Jhanjhot. Subsequently,
they threw the dead body of the deceased under the culvert
of Kalisindh river and also discharged mobile phone and
other items of the deceased after pouring petrol on it.
So far as the present applicant is concerned, it is alleged
that he was also with the co-accused persons during
commission of crime.
Arguments heard. Case-diary perused.
Learned counsel for the State opposed the bail
application.
Learned counsel for the applicants submits that initially,
his name was not included in the accused persons, however,
on memorandum of co-accused, present applicant was
arrested and then, on 10.05.2015, statement of Manish Rai
was recorded in which, he stated that he saw present
applicant also with the other co-accused, while they were
committing the murder. He further submits that no
justification was given why statement of this witness was not
recorded on 10.05.2015. He further submits that similarly,
statement of Anil Thakur was recorded on 13.03.2015 and in
his statement also, no explanation was given why his
statement was not recorded immediately after the incident.
I have gone through the case diary.
There are two witnesses, who confirmed presence of
the present applicant with the co-accused persons. Merely
because, there statements were recorded with some delay, at
this stage, no benefit can be given to the present applicant.
This apart, blood stained clothes were also recovered on his
discloser memo. In the considered opinion of this Court, no
case is made out for grant of bail to the present applicant.
The application is accordingly, dismissed.

Shri Mukesh Sinjonia, learned counsel for the
applicants.
Shri Romesh Dave, learned counsel for the
respondent/State.
Shri Navneet Kishore Verma, learned counsel for the
objector.
Case diary is available.
This is third bail application under section 439 Cr.P.C
for grant of bail.
Their first application was dismissed, as withdrawn in
MCRC No.6100/2015 vide order dated 23.07.2015 after
arguing the matter for some time. Their second application
was dismissed in MCRC No.6145/2015 vide order dated
21.08.2015. Their second application was dismissed, as it was
filed only after five days of withdrawing the first application,
which was not found proper and liberty was granted to the
present applicants to file afresh application to be considered
on merit after filing of the charge-sheet. Accordingly, this
third application is filed availing the liberty granted by this
Court to the applicant after filing of the charge-sheet.
Counsel for the Objector raised preliminary objection
that once the application is dismissed, second application is
not maintainable, unless there should be a substantial change
in the circumstances and not cosmetic change. For this, he
cites judgment of Hon'ble the Supreme Court in the case of
State of Maharashtra Vs. Captain Buddhikota Subha Rao
reported in SCC-1989-SUPP2-605. But the principle laid
down in the aforesaid case is not applicable in the present
case. In that case, three consecutive applications were
dismissed on merit and, therefore, Hon'ble the Supreme
Court laid down the above principle.
However, in this case, earlier two applications were not
considered on merit and also, while dismissing the second
application, liberty was granted to the applicants to file
afresh application after charge-sheet is filed. In this view of
the matter, I find that this third application is maintainable.
The present applicants were arrested by Police Station-
Kalapipal, District - Shajapur in Crime No.250/15 for the
offence punishable under sections 307, 147, 148, 149, 294,
323 and 325 of IPC.
According to the prosecution story, the incident took
place on 26.06.2015 at about 11:00 pm. The dispute arose on
the way between two fields. The co-accused Mansingh
challenged complainant to come on his land and they were
waiting for him. Thereafter, accused persons went and
started started using abusive language against him. When
Leeladhar came to intervene, he was given blow by Farsi on
his head.
Arguments heard. Case-diary perused.
Learned counsel for the State opposed the bail
application.
Learned counsel for the applicants submits that there is
a counter case also registered. He further submits that
charge-sheet has been filed and present applicants are not
required for investigation.
Counsel for the objector, however, submits that two
persons suffered more than ten injuries in this case and there
is a dispute between two sections of same village and if bail is
granted to the present applicants, the dispute may again take
place.
After perusing the case-diary and taking into
consideration all the facts and circumstances of the case,
without commenting on the merits of the case, I am of the
view that it is a fit case for grant of bail. The application is
allowed.
It is directed that applicants shall be released on bail on
their furnishing a personal bond of Rs.50,000/- (Rs. Fifty
Thousand) each and one solvent surety each of the like
amount to the satisfaction of the concerned Magistrate for
their appearance on all the dates of hearing as may be
directed in this regard during trial.
The applicants are further directed that on being so
released on bail, they would comply with the conditions
enumerated under section 437 (3) Cr.P.C meticulously.
C.c. as per rules.

- Chhapiheda, Tehsil - Biaora, District - Rajgarh in Crime
No.172/2014 under sections 294, 323, 506/34 and 436 of

According to the prosecution story, present applicants
were earlier arrested in the same crime number under
sections 294, 323 and 506/34 of IPC. They were granted bail
by the Magistrate. However, subsequently, section 436 of
IPC was added and now, present applicants apprehend their
arrest as trial under section 436 is sessions trial and the
Magistrate does not have power to grant bail under this
section.
Arguments heard. Case diary perused.
Counsel for the State opposes the application.
Taking all the facts and circumstances of the case into
consideration, without commenting on the merits of the case,
I find that it is fit case where the benefit of provision under

applicants. Accordingly, the application is allowed.

This is third bail application under section 439 Cr.P.C
for grant of bail.
His first application was dismissed on merit in MCRC
No.128/2015 vide order dated 13.03.2015 on medical ground
and also on the ground that daughter of the present applicant
died recently. His second application for grant of temporary
bail was dismissed in MCRC No.3516/2015 vide order dated

the present applicant wishes to get himself operated in a
private hospital and if he deposits necessary amount with the
jail authorities as per the estimate given by the concerning
hospital, he may be admitted in the hospital under the
security and necessary operation may be performed on him.
Now, this third application is filed on the ground that
when the hospital authorities, where the present applicant
wants to get himself operated, were contacted by the family
members of the present applicant, they informed that they
could not give any estimate unless the patient is examined.
Therefore, counsel for the applicant prays that present
applicant be released on temporary bail for fifteen days so
that he may get himself examined and necessary estimate be
prepared.
Counsel for the CBN submits that for the examination,
he may be taken to the hospital under security and after
examination, necessary estimate can be prepared.

putforth by both the counsels, it is directed that the present
applicant be taken to a private hospital, where he wants to get
himself operated under proper security and after his
examination by the doctors, he be re-lodged in jail. It is
further directed that after estimate is prepared, directions
issued in the earlier order would operate.

This is first bail application under section 439 Cr.P.C for
grant of bail.
The present applicant was arrested by Police Station- City
Kotwali, District - Mandsaur in Crime No.502/15 for the offence
punishable under sections 323, 344, 365, 347, 384, 386 and 506
of IPC.
According to the prosecution story, on 26.07.2015 abductee
Tarachand Gandhi went to a Tea Stall for having tea. There, it is
alleged that present applicant alongwith co-accused Mahesh and
his maternal uncle came in Bolero vehicle and they forcibly took
abductee Tarachand Gandhi to village Khanderiyamaru and kept
him there tied. By threatening him, they pressurized him to
execute power of attorney for transfer of his revenue land and a
house. For making his voter I.D. Card, they took him to
Mandsaur Court and there, they completed formalities for making
of Voter I.D. Card. They also got sale deed executed in favour of
Maya W/o Mukesh Pawar. It is further alleged that prior to the
incident also, they took Rs.40,000/- from abductee Tarachand
Gandhi on the promise that they would sale him Nano Car but the
Car was not given to him.
Arguments heard. Case-diary perused.
Learned counsel for the State opposed the bail application
on the ground that present applicant took law into his hand and
then forcibly got the sale deed of the land executed in favour of
Maya W/o Mukesh Pawar.
Learned counsel for the applicant submits that it was a civil
dispute. Present applicant and said Tarachand Gandhi had some
financial dealings with each other and some money was due with
Tarachand Gandhi. Due to this reason, he was falsely implicated
in the case. According to him, he voluntarily executed the sale
deed in favour of Maya W/o Mukesh Pawar.

This is first bail application under section 439 Cr.P.C
for grant of bail.
The present applicants were arrested by Police Station-
Nalkheda, District - Agar in Crime No.185/15 for the offence
punishable under sections 307, 147, 148, 149 & 506 IPC.
According to the prosecution story, the incident took
place on 14.07.2015. The dispute arose due to passing
through the fields of complainant and then it is alleged that
present applicants have inflicted injury to Shahrukh Khan,
Rajjak Khan and Babu Khan by lathi. Babu Khan sustained
injury on his head with corresponding fracture of skull bone.
Arguments heard. Case-diary perused.
Learned counsel for the State and Objector opposed the
bail application. Learned counsel for the Objector submits
that on being released from jail, accused persons will
threaten them. They used abusive language against them.
They further said that as soon as their brothers come out of
the jail, they will drive them away from the village. They
apprehend that they are going to commit serious offence
against them.
Learned counsel for the applicants submits that charge
sheet has been filed in this case and injured has been
discharged from hospital. Present applicants are not required
by the Police for investigation. He further submits that a
cross case is also registered at Crime No.186/15 against the
complainant party. He further submits that co-accused
persons granted bail in MCRC Nos.7951/2015 and
8253/2015 vide order dated 09.09.2015 and 28.09.2015
respectively. The case of the present applicants is not
different than that of co-accused, who were granted bail,
therefore, on the principle of parity, he prays that bail should
be granted to the present applicants. He further submits that
apprehension of the objector is baseless. No case was
registered by the police and only to keep the applicants in
jail, a false complaint was lodged by the complainant.

M.Cr.C. No.2526/2015
07.10.2015
Shri Sudeep Bhargav, learned counsel for the
respondent.
This is an enquiry under section 340 of Cr.P.C. The
facts which necessitated this enquiry are that Professor
Chintaman Malviya (hereinafter referred to as the
'respondent') is returned candidate from Lok Sabha
Constituency No.2, Ujjain (M.P.) in general election of Lok
Sabha held in the month of March-April, 2014. An Election
Petition was filed against the respondent challenging his
election to Lok Sabha which was registered as Election
Petition No.33/2014. In this petition, notice was issued to the
respondent bearing No.1762 dated 12.08.2014. Notice was
sent to the District Judge, Ujjain, for service upon the
respondent. The notice was served by process server Shri
Arun Bhalerao on 16.08.2014 personally on the respondent.
2. However, respondent remained absent before the
Election Judge and, therefore, Election Petition filed against
him proceeded ex-parte. Subsequent to this, he filed an
application under Order 9 Rule 7 of CPC for setting aside the
ex-parte order passed against him. In support of the
application, he filed an affidavit stating therein that the notice
was served on his staff while he was busy in the ongoing
session of the Parliament. When he came back to Ujjain, he
came to know about the notice when it was placed before
him and thereafter, immediately, he proceeded to take
necessary action for setting aside of the ex-parte order. When
this application is filed by respondent, the applicant filed I.A.
No.1303/2015 under section 340 of Cr.P.C. stating therein
that respondent made false statement in the affidavit and
thereby he committed offence under section 193 of IPC and
he further prayed that suitable action be taken against the
respondent.
3. The Co-ordinate Bench of this Court to which the
Election Petition was assigned, passed an order dated
24.03.2015 on the application. In para 8 and 9 of the order,
the Co-ordinate Bench observed as under:-
(8) So far as the application of petitioner is
concerned, prima facie it seems that the
respondent No.1 himself has received the notice
of this petition on 16.08.2014 whereas, on oath
he stated that he received the notice of this
petition on 25.01.2015 through his employee.
This controversy can be resolved only after the
enquiry, therefore, the Principal Registrar of this
Bench is directed to register a Misc. Criminal
Case under section 340 of the Cr.P.C. against the
respondent No.1and initiate the enquiry and after
making due enquiry if he finds that respondent
NO.1 has filed a false affidavit in support of I.A.
No.927/2015 then file a private complaint against
respondent No.1 before the competent
Magistrate. Thus, the application (I.A.
No.1303/2015) is allowed.
(9) Reader is directed to send the photocopy of
this order alongwith the original second copy of
notice of respondent No.1 and service report of
process server in a sealed envelope for
compliance of the order to Principal Registrar of
this Bench. Whereas, the photocopy of the notice
and service report of process server be kept with
this record.
4. The enquiry was assigned to the Principal Registrar of
this Bench of High Court. However, it was pointed out by the
registry that under section 340 of Cr.P.C., enquiry should
have been conducted by the Court itself and, therefore, by
order dated 30.06.2015, this Court modified earlier order
passed by the Co-ordinate Bench and directed the registry to
place the matter before the Court for conducting enquiry.
5. During the enquiry, statements of process server Arun
Bhalerao was recorded on 09.09.2015. He confirmed that he
served notice bearing No.1762 dated 12.08.2014 on the
respondent personally and also respondent signed it before
him. He was also cross examined by counsel for the
respondent. In his statement, he also stated that on that day,
another process server of Ujjain District Court, Bharat Singh
Chouhan was also on beat on that particular day and he was
with him when notice was served. He witnessed that notice
was served personally on the respondent. Subsequently,
statement of Bharat Singh Chouhan was also recorded and he
confirmed in his statement that notice was served personally
on the respondent.
6. After recording the statements and taking into
consideration the served notice bearing No.1762 dated
12.08.2014 and enclosed hukmnama, it is apparent that
notice was served personally on the respondent while in the
affidavit, he mentioned that notice was served on his staff.
7. Counsel for the respondent cited judgment of Hon'ble
the Supreme Court in the case of Chhaju Ram Vs. Radhey
Shyam reported in 1971 Law Suit (SC) 204. In para 7 of the
Judgment, Hon'ble the Supreme Court observed here as
under:-
(6)--------------------------------------------------------
(7) The prosecution for perjury should be
sanctioned by courts only in those cases where
the perjury appears to be deliberate and
conscious and the conviction is reasonably
probable or likely. No doubt giving of false
evidence and filing false affidavit is an evil
which must be effectively curbed with a strong
hand but to start prosecution for perjury too
readily and too frequently with,out due care and
caution and on inconclusive and doubtful
material defeats its very purpose. Prosecution
should be ordered when it is considered
expedient in the interests of justice to punish the
delinquent and not merely because there is some
inaccuracy in the statement which may be
innocent or immaterial. There must be prima
facie case of deliberate falsehood on a matter of
substance and the court should be satisfied that
there is reasonable foundation for the charge.
-----------------------------------------------------------
8. It is to be seen whether, it is in the interest of justice to punish the respondent whether, such lapses on his part are immaterial and innocent.
9. Counsel for the respondent argues that it was unintentional mistake on the part of the respondent and, therefore, no action should be taken against him.
10. In my considered opinion, however, more cautious and responsible approach was expected from the respondent being representative of people and professor himself. He is expected to understand the consequences of not appearing before the Court of law and specially before the High Court. Therefore, in this case, lenient and sympathetic view is not called for. In this view of the matter, I find that prosecution for perjury should be initiated against the respondent.
11. The Principal Registrar of this Court is authorised under section 195 (1)(b)(i) to file complaint in the concerning court of Magistrate. The Principal Registrar is directed to draft the complaint and place it before the Court for approval.

MCRC No.7616/2015 06.10.2015 Shri Sanjay Sharma, counsel for the applicant. Shri Mukesh Parwal, counsel for the respondent/State.
Case diary is available.
This is second bail application filed by the applicant under section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for grant of bail.
The accused/applicant was arrested by the Police Station - Industrial Area, Jaora, District - Ratlam in Crime No.153/2015 under sections 307, 394, 341 and 506 of IPC.
According to the prosecution, present applicant alongwith other co-accused committed loot on the complainant Brajmohan and Babu. They also fired gunshot due to which, the complainant sustained some injuries. The present applicant alongwith the other co-accused, it is alleged, fled away from the spot. The matter was reported to the police station - Industrial Area, Jaora, District - Ratlam on which Crime No.152/2015 was registered. Thereafter, the Station Incharge of police station alongwith Constable Deepak Bhuria accompanied by complainant Brajmohan, Babu and Mohammad Anwar went out in search of the miscreants. They were told that three motorcycles went towards village Barkhedi and when they were going towards village Barkhedi, they saw four persons on three motorcycles. Present applicant was also there. When they were challenged by the police party, they opened gun fire on them. Nobody from the police party sustained any injury, however, in return, the police party also opened fire on them due to which, present applicant sustained injuries on his both thighs. Subsequently, present applicant and another co-accused Sunil were arrested.
This second application is filed on the ground that nd
(i) co-accused Sunil was granted bail by 2 Additional Sessions Judge on the ground that in the earlier part of prosecution story, in which present applicant allegedly committed loot on the complainant, co-accused Sunil was not identified by the complainant. (ii) There were four accused persons according to the prosecution story. However, during investigation, two accused persons fled away. The police did not take any action to trace the persons, who fled away from the spot and (iii) The prosecution witnesses Ghanshyam @ Kalu, Babulal and Mohd. Anwar gave affidavits in which they denied that any incident took place with them.
In this case, the incident took place in two parts. In the first part, loot was committed on the complainant and his companion Babu. In the second part, when the matter was reported to the police, the police tried to chase accused persons and then, it is said that present applicant fired gunshot which did not hit any of the police man but when the police fired in reply, present applicant sustained gunshot injuries. Two separate First Information Reports were prepared for Crime Nos.152/2015 and 153/2015.
Counsel for the applicant submits that as case of the co- accused Sunil is similar to the present applicant, present applicant should also be granted bail.
nd I have gone through the orders passed by learned 2 Additional Sessions Judge.
It is unfortunate that learned Additional Sessions Judge did not consider whether, case of the co-accused was similar to present applicant while bail application of the present applicant was dismissed by this Court on merits. There was no occasion for learned Additional Sessions Judge to grant bail to the co-accused, who was similarly placed. This apart, taking the affidavits filed by certain prosecution witnesses into consideration, is also not called for at this stage.
On merits, it is admitted that present applicant suffered gunshot injuries during the incident which shows his presence on the spot. The other co-accused, who was granted bail by learned Additional Sessions Judge, was named in the FIR and was identified by witnesses. The police, who went in search of the culprits, was an eye witness and even if some prosecution witnesses turned hostile, statements of the police in this case, cannot be disbelieved merely because they are police personnels. When the police personnels are eye witnesses, their statements must be examined like that of interested witnesses. But they are competent witnesses and their statements cannot be rejected on the face of it.
In this view of the matter, I find no change in the circumstances. This second application is not tenable, liable to be dismissed and is hereby, dismissed.
Let a copy of this order be sent to the Registrar cum P.P.S. to Hon'ble the Chief Justice with a request to place the same before Hon'ble the Chief Justice for necessary directions and suitable action.
Certified copy as per rules.

The accused/applicant was arrested by the Police Station - Raoji Bazar, District - Indore in Crime No.249/2015 under section 34 of MP Excise Act for keeping in her possession 57.6 bulk liters of contraband country liquor.
Learned counsel for the State opposes the bail application on the ground that as per the report received from the concerning police station, present applicant is a habitual offender and dealing with in contraband country liquor though, there is no crime registered against her apart from the present case.
Arguments heard, case diary perused. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that present applicant is a lady and falsely implicated in the case.
Taking into consideration all the facts and circumstances of the case, without commenting on the merits of the case, I am of the view that it is a fit case for grant of bail. The application filed under section 439 of the Cr.P.C. is allowed on the condition that after being released on bail, she will not indulge in any kind of criminal activities whatsoever.
It is directed that the applicant shall be released on bail subject to the aforesaid condition and on her furnishing a personal bond of Rs.30,000/- (Rs. Thirty Thousand only) and one solvent surety of the like amount to the satisfaction of the concerned Magistrate for her appearance on all the dates of hearing as may be directed in this regard during trial.

Case diary is available.
This is first bail application under section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for grant of bail filed by the applicant.
The accused/applicant was arrested by the Police Station - Ingoriya, District - Ujjain in Crime No.312/2015 under sections 341, 294, 323, 506/34 and 376 (D)/34 of IPC.
According to the prosecution story, the incident took place on 21.06.2015 when the prosecutrix went to attend call of nature at about 08.30 in the night. It is alleged that present applicant alongwith two other co-accused caught hold of her and committed gang rape on her. Thereafter, they also threatened her that if she disclose the incident to anybody, they would kill her.
When the matter was reported on 21.06.2015, there was no mention of committing rape with her in the FIR. In her statement recorded on 22.06.2015 also, there was no such allegation of rape. However, her statement was again recorded on 24.06.2015 then, she added the incident of rape. She was medically examined in which some bruises on both her thighs and no other injury was found. In her statement made under section 164 of Cr.P.C. also which was recorded on 24.06.2015, she narrated the whole incident, as she narrated under section 161 of Cr.P.C.
Learned counsel for the State opposes the application. Arguments heard, case diary perused. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that only one accused Govind was named in the FIR. However, in her statements made under section 164 of Cr.P.C., she stated that she knew all the accused persons.
Taking into consideration all the facts and circumstances of the case, without commenting on the merits of the case, I am of the view that it is a fit case for grant of bail. The application filed under section 439 of the Cr.P.C. is allowed.

According to the prosecution story, the prosecutrix, who was aged about 17 years and 7 months at the time of incident, went missing. Subsequently, she was recovered from possession of the present applicant. In her statement made under section 164 of Cr.P.C., she did not support case of the prosecution and stated that she was married to the present applicant and went with him with her own free will. Learned counsel for the State opposes the application. Arguments heard, case diary perused. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that in the Ossification Test, age of the prosecutrix was assessed to be 18 to 19 years. He further submits that she was major at the time of the incident.

This is second application under section 438 of Cr.P.C. filed on behalf of present applicants for grant of anticipatory bail. Their first application was dismissed, as withdrawn in MCRC No.4922/2015 vide order dated 22.06.2015. A liberty was granted to the present applicants to surrender before the trial Court and direction was given to the trial Court to decide the application of regular bail, as expeditiously as possible.
This second application is filed on the ground that there is subsequent change in the circumstances. The present applicants found in possession of Compact Disk in which brother of the deceased Dheeraj gave statement to the TV Channel that the deceased committed suicide when the police came in search of him, as complaint was lodged against him by one Pinky Sen. However, such statements given to a news channel or news published in the news paper do not form any change in the circumstances. Instead of availing the liberty granted by this Court, this second application is filed.
Accordingly, in the considered opinion of this Court, no case is made out for grant of anticipatory bail to the present applicants. The application is not maintainable, deserves to be dismissed and is hereby, dismissed.

Shri Mukesh Parwal, learned counsel for the respondent no.1/State.
This is first application under section 438 of Cr.P.C. filed on behalf of present applicants for grant of anticipatory bail.
The applicants apprehend their arrest in Criminal Complaint No.586/2015 pending before learned JMFC, Shujalpur under section 467, 468, 420 and 120-B of IPC.
As per the allegations made in the complaint, present applicants sold the land in joint ownership of the complainant and the present applicants and conspiring with the accused No.1- Ramesh. They also got the land mutated in their names.
Respondent No.2 was served notice of this application but he failed to appear before the Court.
Counsel for the applicants submits that initially learned JMFC refused to take cognizance on the ground that it is purely a civil matter, however the complainant filed revision of the order and on the direction of the revisional court, cognizance was taken. According to them, it is a case based on the documentary evidence. There is no chance of the present applicants' absconding, therefore, bail may be granted to the present applicants.
Arguments heard. Case diary perused. Counsel for the State opposes the application. Taking all the facts and circumstances of the case into consideration, without commenting on the merits of the case, I find that it is fit case where the benefit of provision under section 438 of Cr.P.C. may be extended to the present applicants. Accordingly, the application is allowed.
It is directed that in the event of arrest, the applicants shall be released on anticipatory bail on their furnishing a personal bond of Rs.50,000/- (Rs. Fifty Thousand only) each and a solvent surety each of the like amount to the satisfaction of the concerning Magistrate or Arresting Officer as the case may be, with the following conditions:-
(i) that they shall make themselves available for interrogation by a police officer as and when required.
(ii) that they 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.
(iii) that they would comply with the conditions enumerated under section 437(3) Cr.P.C. meticulously.

MCRC No.8565/2015 05.10.2015 Shri Girish Desai, learned counsel for the applicants.
Shri Govind Purohit, learned counsel for the respondent/EOW.
This is first application under section 438 of Cr.P.C. filed on behalf of present applicants for grant of anticipatory bail.
The applicants apprehend their arrest by Police Station - Economic Offences Wing, District - Indore in Crime No.35/2012 under sections 420, 406, 409 and 120-B of IPC.
According to the prosecution story, present applicants were office bearers of the Co-operative Housing Society. They purchased some agricultural land in the year 1987. According to the prosecution, they purchased land by the Cooperative Society in contravention of Nagar Bhoomi (Seema Evam Viniyam) Adhiniyam, 1976. Subsequently, about 2 and half acre of the land was sold by the society and the society earned profit of Rs.7,00,000/-. According to the prosecution, profit earned by the society was not distributed by the office bearer to members of the society and they also did not alloted the land which remained in possession of the society.
According to the applicants, charge-sheet was filed under sections 420, 406 and 120-B of IPC, however, taking the present applicants are agents of the members of the society, the Magistrate took cognizance under section 409 of IPC.
Arguments heard. Case diary perused. Counsel for the State opposes the application. Counsel for the applicants submits that the matter began in the year 1987 when the land was purchased. There is no likelihood of the present applicants' absconding, as they are not habitual offenders and they are reputed persons of the society. The matter is based on the record and their presence is not required for investigation or for custodial interrogation.
Taking all the facts and circumstances of the case into consideration, without commenting on the merits of the case, I find that it is fit case where the benefit of provision under section 438 of Cr.P.C. may be extended to the present applicants. Accordingly, the application is allowed.
It is directed that in the event of arrest, the applicants shall be released on anticipatory bail on their furnishing a personal bond of Rs.50,000/- (Rs. Fifty Thousand only) each and a solvent surety each of the like amount to the satisfaction of the concerning Magistrate or Arresting Officer as the case may be, with the following conditions:-
(i) that they shall make themselves available for interrogation by a police officer as and when required.
(ii) that they 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.
(iii) that they would comply with the conditions enumerated under section 437(3) Cr.P.C. meticulously.

M.Cr.C. No.5771/2015 05.10.2015 Shri AK Saraswat, learned counsel for the applicant. Shri Mukesh Parwal, learned counsel for the respondent /State.
Case diary is available.
This is first bail application under section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for grant of bail filed by the applicant.
The accused/applicant was arrested by the Police Station - Jawad, District - Neemuch in Crime No.488/2014 under sections 8/18 (B), 29 of NDPS Act.
According to the prosecution story, present applicant was travelling in car which belongs to co-accused, who was driving the car. From the gates of the car, inside the panels, there were secret chambers from which total 15 kg of the contraband Opium was recovered.
Counsel for the applicant submits that present applicant is a handicapped person. He has filed necessary documents to show that he is handicapped.
However, verification could not be done by counsel for the State. Still, he fairly admits that present applicant is handicapped person. However, counsel for the State submits that his defence that he only took lift in the car, from which the contraband was recovered, cannot be seen at this stage. He further submits that as per the source information received by the police, name of the present applicant was informed, therefore, he seriously opposed the bail application.
Counsel for the applicant submits that there is joint memo prepared under section 50 of the NDPS Act. He cites judgment of Hon'ble the Supreme Court in the case of State of Rajasthan Vs. Parmanand and another reported in 2014 Cr.L.R. (SC) 290 in which it was held that joint communication of the right under section 50 would result in diluting the right. Accused must always be individually informed.
However, at this stage, when we are considering bail, the effect of such joint memo cannot be seen. The main criteria can be seen whether the joint memo caused any prejudice to the defence of the present applicant, which can only be seen at the time of final hearing. At this stage, it cannot be said that merely because joint memo was prepared, the present applicant is entitled for bail.
So far as his defence is concerned that he took lift in the car without knowing that the contraband was being transported in the car and also that the contraband was in the door of the car, which was not in the knowledge of the present applicant, this fact can only be determined at the final stage after recording of the evidence. At this stage, no inference can be drawn. Looking to the quantity of the contraband, no case for grant of bail to the present applicant is made out.
The application is accordingly, dismissed. Certified copy as per rules.

The accused/applicant was arrested by the Police Station - Khargone, District - Khargone in Crime No.276/2015 under sections 364-A of IPC and under section 66 of Information Technology Act, 2000.
According to the prosecution story, report was lodged on 26.05.2015 by brother of the prosecutrix stating therein that at about 3 pm in the afternoon, she left her home saying that she was going to her friend's house and thereafter, she did not come back. On 01.06.2015, a message was received on the mobile phone asking for ransom of Rs.2,00,000/-, which she was using prior to going out from her home. Subsequently, it was found that the mobile phone, from which the message was given, was registered in the name of the present applicant and in further investigation it was found that the mobile phone was being used by one Shanu, who was cousin of the present applicant and the co-accused.
Learned counsel for the State opposes the application on the ground that the prosecutrix is still untraceable.
Arguments heard, case diary perused. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the prosecutrix was 21 years of age when she left her home. She is living with one Waseem to whom she is married now. He has filed affidavit of the prosecutrix and Waseem Taking into consideration all the facts and circumstances of the case and also the role assigned to the present applicant, without commenting on the merits of the case, I am of the view that it is a fit case for grant of bail. The application filed under section 439 of the Cr.P.C.
is allowed.
It is directed that the applicant shall be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond of Rs.50,000/- (Rs. Fifty Thousand only) and one solvent surety of the like amount to the satisfaction of the concerned Magistrate for his appearance on all the dates of hearing as may be directed in this regard during trial.
