Reason:
Examination (Prevention of Unfair Means) Act, 1992 and Section

3. Mr. Abhishek Gupta, learned counsel for the petitioner
submits that the petitioner has been in custody since
18.04.2024. He also draws attention to the counter affidavit,
wherein it has been averred that as of now there are 103 accused
persons and the investigation is pending with regard to further
83 other persons. According to learned counsel, the charges have
not yet been framed and considering the large number of
witnesses and documentary evidence the trial is likely to take
some time to conclude.
4. Mr. Amogh Bansal, learned counsel for the State has
vehemently opposed the prayer and submit that the petitioner has
been charged with impersonation and the FSL Report clearly
implicates him inasmuch as the handwriting on the answer-sheets
and of the petitioner has tallied.
5. Considering the facts and circumstances and the period
undergone and the length of time of the trial will take, we are
inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail.
6. Let the petitioner be enlarged on bail subject to the
satisfaction of the Trial Court on such conditions as the Trial
Court may deem it fit to impose. We also direct that the
petitioner may be directed to surrender his passport if he is in
possession of one.
7. Mr. Abhishek Gupta, learned counsel for the petitioner also
undertakes that the petitioner will not delay the trial from his
side.
8. The Special Leave Petition is disposed of in the above
2
terms.
9. All pending applications, if any, also stand disposed of.
