in judicial custody since 26.03.2026; and the trial of the case will
take long time to conclude. Therefore, the bail application of the
petitioner may kindly be allowed.
3. Learned Public Prosecutor vehemently opposed the bail
application and submits that in view of the huge quantity of liquor
is recovered from the petitioner and looking to the gravity of the
offence, the petitioner may not be enlarged on bail.
4. Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the
material available on record.
5. Considering the facts of the case, more particularly that
there is no criminal antecedents against the petitioner; that the
petitioner is in judicial custody since 26.03.2026; and there is high
probability that the trial of the case will take considerable time to
conclude, therefore, I deem it appropriate to enlarge the petitioner
on bail in the present matter.
6. Accordingly, this bail application filed under Section 483
B.N.S.S., 2023 is allowed and it is ordered that the accused-
Mahendra Singh S/o Poonam Singh, shall be enlarged on bail,
if not wanted in any other case, provided he furnishes a personal
bond in the sum of Rs.50,000/- with two sureties of Rs.25,000/-
each to the satisfaction of the learned Trial Court for his
appearance before the court concerned on all the dates of hearing
and as and when called upon to do so.
7. The petitioner shall also not tamper with any evidence nor
would he directly or indirectly make any inducement, threat or
promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as

to dissuade him from disclosing such facts to the court or any
police officer.
8. It is made it clear that the observations made hereinabove
are only for deciding the present bail application without
commenting on the merits/de-merits of the case, and shall not
influence the trial of the case in any manner.
