Order

18/03/2026

1. Apprehending his arrest in connection with FIR No. 38/2025 registered at Police Station Bhirani, District Hanumangarh for the offence(s) under Sections 318(4), 338, 336(3), 340(2) of BNS, the accused-petitioner has preferred this anticipatory bail application under Section 482 BNSS.

2. Learned counsel for the accused-petitioner submits that accused-petitioner has falsely been implicated in this case. It is contended that the FIR was lodged on 27.01.2025, the transaction between the petitioner and complainant was purely of civil nature and there was no assurance by the petitioner that he shall made available an agricultural land to the complainant. The transaction between the petitioner and the complainant took place on 23.11.2022. The amount was transferred in the petitioner's account, thereafter, with a delay of 3 years, the FIR has been lodged only to recover the amount. The accused-petitioner is ready and willing to cooperate with the investigation and custodial investigation of the accused-petitioner is not required, therefore, anticipatory bail application of the accused-petitioner may be allowed.

3. Learned Public Prosecutor has vehemently opposed the anticipatory bail application and contended that after investigation, petitioner's involvement was found. It is also contended that against petitioner four criminal cases were lodged, however, in three cases, the police has submitted the final negative report, therefore, considering the aforesaid facts, the anticipatory bail application of the accused-petitioner deserves dismissal

4. Heard and perused the material available on record.

5. Considering the arguments advanced by learned counsel for the petitioner, this Court deems it just and proper to allow the anticipatory bail application of the accused-petitioner.

6. Accordingly, the anticipatory bail application under Section 482 BNSS is allowed and it is ordered that in the event of arrest of the petitioner Shiv Kumar S/o Tara Chand, in connection with FIR No. 38/2025 registered at Police Station Bhirani, District Hanumangarh, he shall be released on bail, provided he furnishes a personal bond in the sum of Rs.50,000/- with two sureties in the sum of Rs.25,000/- each to the satisfaction of the S.H.O/I.O/Arresting Officer of the concerned Police Station on the following conditions:-

(i) that the petitioner shall make himself available for interrogation by a police officer as and when required;

(ii) that the petitioner shall not directly or indirectly make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as to dissuade them from disclosing such facts to the court or any police officer, and (iii) that the petitioner shall not leave India without previous permission of the court.
