ORDER
1.

Vide present application under Section 439 of Code of
Criminal Procedure, the applicant requested to release him on bail in
Crime No. 699 of 2021 registered at Pant Nagar Police Station for
offences punishable under Section 420 of Indian Penal Code.
2.

mis­representing the informant that he proposes to make the golden

chain exactly the same that is with the informant and induced her to
deliver the chain for perusal but did not deliver back the same to the
informant and taken the same with him and thus committed cheating.
3.

The learned advocate on behalf of the accused argued that
chargesheet has been filed as investigation is completed. Therefore, he
requested to allow the application. On the other hand, the learned APP
argued that there is material showing involvement that the applicant
committed cheating. Therefore, she requested to reject the application.
4.

It appears that the golden chain that was taken from the
informant was converted in the form of golden ingot. The same golden
ingot has been seized. Thus, the stolen property has been recovered.
Investigation has been completed and chargesheet has been already
filed. The matter being of 2022 it is not likely that the trial will start in
immediate future. Detaining the accused for indefinite period without
adjudication of trial is not proper since it may amount to pre­trial
conviction. The offence is punishable with imprisonment extending to 7
yrs and triable by the Metropolitan Magistrate. Considering all these
circumstances, it is appropriate to grant bail subject to certain
conditions. Hence, order as follows is passed:
:ORDER:
1. The Bail Application No.667 of 2022 is allowed as under.
2. The applicant accused namely Namdev Dattaram Maine be released

registered at Pant Nagar Police Station.
3.

period of 1 month in lieu of the surety bond.
