Pendency of cases not a ground for rejection of bail



Jaichand v. State Of Rajasthan

Rajasthan High Court
30 May, 1991
Judgment

(1) Petitioners bail application was rejected by the trial court on the ground that about 20 cases are pending against the petitioner.

(2) Mr. Balwada argued that this is no ground for cancelling the bail application. In support of his argument, he placed reliance on jaipal v. State of rajasthan,1, wherein it has been held that if other cases were pending against the petitioner, in that case, the bail application should not have been rejected on that grand. I agree with the arguments advanced by learned counsel for the petitioner and as such i am inclined to grant him bail u/s 439 cr. P. C. It is, therefore, order perfect accused petitioner jail hand be released on bail provided, he furnishes a personal bail bond in the sum of rs. 6,000/ - with two sureties the sum of rs. 3,000/ - each to the satisfaction of the trial court with the stipulation to appear in that court, as and when called upon to do so during the pendency of the trial against him in this case.
