Judgement Date : 7 May, 2022
THE HIGH COURT OF MADHYA PRADESH MCRC No.20679/2022 (JEETU KUSHWAH VS. STATE OF M.P.)
Gwalior, Dated : 07/05/2022
Shri S.S.Rawat learned counsel for the applicant.
Shri C.P.Singh, learned counsel for the State.
Case diary is available.
This first application under Section 439 of Cr.P.C. has been filed
for grant of bail.
The applicant has been arrested on 29/03/2022 in connection
with Crime No.164/2022 registered at Police Station Kotwali, District
Datia for offence under Sections 399, 400, 402 of IPC, Sections 11 and
13 of the MPDVPK Act and Section 25(1-B)A of the Arms Act.
It is submitted by the counsel for the applicant that according to
the prosecution case, the applicant had assembled alongwith other co-
accused persons for making preparation for committing dacoity.
Although, it is alleged that the applicant was arrested on the spot and
one country made pistol alongwith three live cartridges were seized,
but he has been falsely implicated. In view of the criminal antecedents
of the applicant, he is ready and willing to abide by any stringent
condition, which may be imposed by this Court. The Trial is likely to
take sufficiently long time and there is no possibility of his absconding
or tampering with the prosecution case.
Per contra, the application is vehemently opposed by the
counsel for the State. It is submitted that the applicant has a criminal

history and three criminal cases have been registered against him, out
of which two cases were registered under Jua Act and one offence was
registered under Section 25/27 of the Arms Act.
Considering the period of detention as well as nature of
allegations and without commenting on the merits of the case, the
application is allowed. It is directed that the applicant be released on
bail on furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs.1,00,000/-
(Rupees One Lac) with one surety in the like amount to the
satisfaction of the Trial Court/Committal Court to appear before the
Court on the dates given by the concerned Court.
It is further directed that the applicant shall appear before the
S.H.O. Police Station Kotwali, District Datia on 1st of every month
during the pendency of the Trial. In case of bail jump or non-
appearance of the applicant before the police station as directed by this
Court, this order shall lose its effect.
In the light of the judgment passed by the Supreme Court in the
case of Aparna Bhat and others Vs. State of M.P. Passed on
18.03.2021 in Criminal Appeal No. 329/2021, the intimation
regarding grant of bail be sent to the complainant.
