JUDGMENT
Mr. Rajbir Sehrawat, J. (Oral)
The present petition has been filed by the petitioner under Section 439 Cr.PC. seeking bail pending trial in case FIR No.385 dated 13.12.2019 under Sections 420 , 467, 468, 120B and 471 of IPC, registered at Police Station Central Sector-17, Chandigarh (Annexure P-1).
2. It is submitted by the counsel for the Petitioner that the case against the petitioner is totally concocted and fabricated. The petitioner is not involved in the crime at all. Even as per the story of the prosecution, petitioner is alleged to have issued fake bills in lieu of 5% commission of GST refunds claimed by the various traders through these bills. The petitioner is not alleged to have got any benefit directly from the GST department or any other government department in the transactions. Petitioner is in custody since 10.12.2022 and he is not required for any further investigation. Hence, the petitioner dese
Indefinite incarceration is unjustified even in serious allegations; bail granted when continued custody serves no useful purpose.
Indefinite custody is unjustified when allegations are unadjudicated; bail granted to the petitioner.
The court emphasized the necessity of substantial evidence for serious charges under the GST Act and the accused's right to a fair trial.
The pendency of multiple FIRs against an accused does not justify the denial of bail if no incriminating evidence is presented.
