[2026:RJ-JP:33777] HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN BENCH AT JAIPUR S.B. Criminal Miscellaneous Bail Application No. 10622/2026 CNR: RJHC020638112026 | URN: CRLMB / 19714U / 2026 Rahul S/o Sohan Lal, Aged About 35 Years, R/o Tamoliyo Ka Bas, Khareri, Police Station Sadar Bayana, District Bharatpur, Presently Sanchalak Shyam Medical Store, Mandawar Road, Mahwa, District Dausa (At Present Confined In District Jail Dausa) ----Petitioner Versus State of Rajasthan, Through P.P. ----Respondent For Petitioner(s) : Mr. Umashanker Pandey For Respondent(s) : Mr. Manvendra Singh Choudhary, PP HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE CHANDRA PRAKASH SHRIMALI Order 21/08/2026 1. The instant bail application has been filed under Section 483 BNSS on behalf of the accused-petitioner. The accused-petitioner has been arrested in connection with FIR No.298/2026 registered at Police Station-Mahuwa, District-Dausa for the offences under Sections 8/22 of Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985.

2. Learned counsel for the accused-petitioner submits that the accused-petitioner has falsely been implicated in this case. He submits that the 'Tramadol' capsules weighing i.e. 19 gm 10 miligram, alleged contraband have been recovered from the possession of the accused-petitioner, which is less than commercial quantity. Petitioner is behind the bars since 25.06.2026. He further submits that investigation has been completed against the accused-petitioner and trial of the case may take considerable time, there is no criminal antecedent registered [2026:RJ-JP:33777] (2 of 2) [CRLMB-10622/2026] against the accused-petitioner, therefore, he prayed that the bail application of the accused-petitioner may be allowed. 3. Learned Public Prosecutor has vehemently opposed the bail application and looking to the gravity of the offence, the bail application of the accused deserves to be rejected. 4. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned Public Prosecutor and perused the material available on record. 5. Taking into consideration the overall facts and circumstances of the case, especially considering the fact that the alleged recovered contraband is less than commercial quantity, but without expressing any opinion on the merits and demerits of the case, this Court deems it just and proper to enlarge the petitioner on bail.

6. Accordingly, the bail application under Section 483 BNSS is allowed and it is ordered that the accused/petitioner-Rahul S/o Sohanlal, shall be enlarged on bail provided he furnishes a personal bond in the sum of Rs.1,00,000/- with two sureties of Rs.50,000/- each to the satisfaction of the learned trial Judge for his appearance before the Court concerned on all the dates of hearing and as and when called upon to do so. 7. As per order dated 31.01.2023 passed by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in SMWP (Criminal) No.04/2021 In Re Policy Strategy for Grant of Bail & SLP (Cri.) No.529/2021, the copy of this order shall be sent to the concerned Jail Authority to inform the accused-petitioner. (CHANDRA PRAKASH SHRIMALI),J 24/GARIMA
