Order
09/01/2025
1. The instant bail application has been filed under Section 483
BNSS on behalf of the petitioner, who has been arrested in
connection with FIR No.202/2022 registered at Police Station
Gumanpura, District Kota City (Raj.) for the offences punishable
under Sections 420 & 406 of IPC. Later on, police filed charge-
sheet in this matter for the offences punishable under Sections
420, 406, 467, 468, 471 & 120-B of IPC and under Sections 3, 4,
5, & 6 of Prize Chits and Money Circulation Schemes (Banning) Act,
1978.
2. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner has
falsely been implicated in this case. Counsel submits that on the
basis of vague allegations, arrest of the petitioner has been made.

Counsel further submits that alleged offences are triable by
magistrate. Counsel submits that several other cases have been
registered against the petitioner and he has been arrested in
connection thereof, by the investigating agency. Actually, he is in
custody since May, 2022. However, in this case, formal arrest of
the petitioner has been made 16.05.2024. Counsel submits that in
some other cases he has been granted benefit of bail and in one
case, benefit of bail has been granted by the Hon’ble Apex Court.
Counsel further submits that charge-sheet has been filed and trial
will take considerable time. Further custody of the petitioner would
not serve any fruitful purpose.
3. Learned Public Prosecutor as well as counsel for the
complainant vehemently opposes the submissions made by counsel
for the petitioner. They submit that petitioner is the main accused
and several other cases have been registered against him. Thus,
bail should not be granted to him.
4. I have considered the contentions.
5. Having regard to the totality of the facts and circumstances of
the case; considering the arguments advanced by learned counsel
for the petitioner, as also the fact that alleged offences are triable
by the Magistrate; charge-sheet has been filed in this matter;
period of custody, but without commenting anything on the
merits/demerits of the case, I deem it fit and proper to allow this
bail application.
6. This bail application is accordingly allowed and it is directed
that accused-petitioner Murli Manohar S/o Shri Badrilal shall be
released on bail provided he furnishes a personal bond in the sum

of Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty Thousand only) together with two
sureties in the sum of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand
only) each to the satisfaction of the learned Trial Court with the
stipulation that he shall appear before that Court and any court to
which the matter is transferred, on all subsequent dates of hearing
and as and when called upon to do so.
7. It is made clear that the accused petitioner shall not involve
in any other similar offence during currency of the bail. After being
released from prison, he shall mark his presence in first week of
every month in the concerned police station.
8. If any breach of these conditions is reported or come to the
notice of the Court, the same shall alone be a reason for the trial
court to cancel the bail granted to him by this Court.
9. The SHO concerned is directed to maintain a register
recording attendance of the accused, as mentioned above. In
case, the petitioner fails to mark his attendance as mentioned
above, the SHO shall intimate the trial court immediately.
