JUDGMENT :

Govind Mathur, C.J.

1. Heard learned Counsel for the applicant and learned A.G.A. for the State-respondents.

2. While pressing this bail application, it is submitted by learned Counsel for the applicant that the applicant is behind bars since 11th June, 2014 and a charge-sheet has already been filed on 4th August, 2014. The charges against the applicant are relating to offence under sections 419 and 420 of Indian Penal Code and as such the same are Magistrate triable.

3. It is asserted by learned Counsel for the applicant that there is no just reason now to keep the applicant behind the bars.

4. While opposing the application, it is submitted by learned Additional Government Advocate that the applicant is facing 90 cases of same nature and therefore, it would not be appropriate to release him on bail.

5. On going through the record, it reveals that all the 90 cases are outcome of a same incident and the first information reports were lodged in a very small span of time.

6. Looking to the facts stated above, especially looking to the fact that the applicant is behind the bars since 11th June, 2014 for an offence which is Magistrate triable, without making any observation on the merits of the case, I am inclined to grant the application. Accordingly, the same is allowed.

7. Let the applicant Rajesh Rathaur involved in Case Crime No. 55 of 2014, under sections 419, 420 I.P.C., P.S.

(ii) The applicant shall remain present before the Trial Court on each date fixed, either personally or through his counsel. In case of his absence, without sufficient cause, the Trial Court may proceed against him under section 229-A of the Indian Penal Code.
