IN THE SUPREME COURT OF INDIA
CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION
CRIMINAL APPEAL NO(S). OF 2025.
(Arising out of SLP(Crl.)No(s). 9324/2025)
MANDEEP KUMAR APPELLANT(S)
VERSUS
STATE OF RAJASTHAN RESPONDENT(S)
O R D E R
1. Leave granted.
2. Heard learned counsel for the parties.
3. This appeal arises from an order dated 12.05.2025
passed by the High Court of Judicature for Rajasthan at
Jaipur rejecting the bail prayer of the appellant in
connection with FIR No.13/2024.
4. The allegation against the appellant as per the charge
sheet extract is that he arranged a forged certificate of
participation of his wife in a tug of war event. It appears,
using that certificate his wife – Suman Bhari has secured
appointment. Suman Bhari, herself is an accused and is
currently in jail.
5. The argument of the learned counsel for the appellant
is that both husband and wife are currently in jail; there
is a child to be looked after; the allegation against the
3
appellant is in respect of arranging a fake certificate for
his wife, therefore the possibility of the appellant
receiving any consideration for the same is remote; that a
large number of persons have been made accused in connection
with FIR No.13/2024 and as many as 49 witnesses are to be
examined in the trial; and the learned Magistrate handling
the trial has not been able to comply with the mandate of
Section 437(6) of the Code of Criminal Procedure (for short
‘the Cr.P.C.’). In such circumstances, the appellant is
entitled to be released on bail.
6. The learned counsel for the respondent-State submits
that the provisions of Section 437(6) of the Cr.P.C. are not
mandatory in nature and in the facts of the case, the
benefit of this provision may be denied.
7. Having regard to the submissions made as also that the
appellant has been incarcerated since 11.04.2024 in a
Magistrate triable offence, bearing in mind that the
likelihood of the trial being concluded in near future is
remote, we are of the view that the appellant is entitled to
be released on bail.
8. Consequently, the appeal is allowed. The impugned order
dated 12.05.2025 is set aside qua the present appellant.
9. The appellant shall be released on bail on such terms
and conditions as the Trial Court concerned may deem fit and
proper in the circumstances to impose.

10. Pending application(s), if any shall stand disposed of.
