Order

Section 483 of BNSS in FIR No.62/2025 registered at Police
Station Mangalwad, District Chittorgarh for offence under Sections

2. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned
Public Prosecutor and perused the material available on record.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits the petitioner has
been implicated in this case on the false ground. He again
submitted that the accused person - Jaskaran from whose
conscious possession, the contraband of the commercial quantity
i.e. 5.625 Kg opium was recovered, has been enlarged on bail by
the co-ordinate Bench of this Court vide order dated 21.01.2026.
He has further submitted that the role of the present petitioner
was that he was having two-wheeler vehicle, in which, the prime

[2026:RJ-JD:5762] (2 of 2) [CRLMB-14814/2025]
He submitted that nothing has been recovered from the
possession of the present petitioner. Petitioner is behind the bars
since 07.04.2025. The trial of the case will take considerable time,
therefore, no fruitful purpose would be served by keeping the
petitioner in further custody and the bail application of the
petitioner may be allowed.
4. Learned Public Prosecutor has vehemently opposed the bail
application.
5. On consideration of the rival submissions and material
available on record and in light of submission made by learned
counsel for the petitioner but without expressing any opinion on
merits/demerits of the case, I am inclined to grant benefit of bail
to the petitioner.
6. Consequently, the bail application under Section 483
B.N.S.S. is allowed and it is directed that the petitioner Kamlesh
S/o Shri Narayan Lal Patidar, 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
learned trial court with the stipulation that he shall appear before
that Court on all subsequent dates of hearing till conclusion of the
trial.
