                              Date : 30/07/2026

                                   ORDER


[1.0] RULE. Learned APP waives service of rule for the respondent-State.

[2.0] The present application is filed under Section 483 of the Bharatiya
Nagrik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (for short “BNSS”) for successive regular bail
in connection with FIR being C.R. No.11204068260261 of 2026 registered
with Vadtal Police Station, Kheda, for the offence under Sections 65-A,
65(e), 116-B and 98(2) of the Prohibition Act.


[3.0] Learned advocate appearing on behalf of the applicant submits that
applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in the offence. He
therefore submits that, considering the nature of the offence, the applicant
may be enlarged on successive regular bail by imposing suitable conditions.

[4.0] Learned APP appearing on behalf of the respondent-State has
opposed the present application and submitted that, the applicant is
involved in the offene. Hence, the present application does not deserve any
consideration.

[5.0] While granting bail, the Court has to consider the involvement of the
accused in the alleged offence, the jurisdiction to grant bail has to be
exercised on the basis of the well settled principles having regard to the

      R/CR.MA/17211/2026                                   ORDER DATED: 30/07/2026




facts and circumstances of each case and the following factors are to be
taken into consideration while considering an application for bail: (i) the
nature of accusation and the severity of the punishment and the nature of
the materials relied upon by the prosecution; (ii) reasonable apprehension
of tampering with the witnesses and threat to the complainant or the
witnesses; (iii) reasonable possibility of securing the presence of the
accused at the time of trial or the likelihood of his abscondence; (iv)
character behaviour and standing of the accused and the circumstances
which are peculiar to the accused; (v) larger interest of the public or the
State and similar other considerations are required to be considered.


[6.0] I have heard the learned advocates appearing on behalf of the
respective parties and perused the investigation papers. Following aspects
have been considered:
(1)         investigation is over and charge-sheet is filed;
(2)       Applicant is behind the bar since 05.06.2026;
(3)       There is nothing to be recovered or discovered from the applicant;
(4)       applicant is having two past antecedents, however the accused is
          governed by presumption of innocence unless and until proved
          guilty;


[7.0] This Court has also taken into consideration the law laid down by the
Hon'ble Apex Court in the case of Sanjay Chandra vs. Central Bureau of
Investigation reported in [2012]1 SCC 40 as well as in the case of
Gudikanti Narasimhulu And Ors vs. Public Prosecutor, High Court of
Andhra Pradesh reported in (1978)1 SCC 240. Obviously, the conclusion of
trial will take time and keeping the accused behind the bars is nothing but
amounts to pre-trial conviction and therefore, considering the celebrated
principle of bail jurisprudence is that “bail is a rule and jail is exception” as
well as the concept of personal liberty guaranteed under Article 21 of the
Constitution of India, present application deserves consideration.

[8.0] In the facts and circumstances of the case and considering the nature
of the allegations made against the applicant in the FIR, without discussing
the evidence in detail, prima facie, this Court is of the opinion that this is a fit
case to exercise the discretion and enlarge the applicant on successive
regular bail. Hence, the present application is allowed. The applicant is
ordered to be released on successive regular bail in connection with FIR

             shall not obstruct or hamper the police investigation and shall
