NIRMAL KUMAR Vs. STATE OF RAJASTHAN

JUDGEMENT

(1.) HEARD the learned counsel for the parties.

(2.) MR . Pradeep Shah, learned counsel for the petitioner vehemently submitted that the learned Sessions Judge has committed grave error in rejecting the anticipatory bail application of the present accused petitioner on 19.8.1998. Mr. Bhati, learned Public Prosecutor for the State, however, submitted that the co-accused anticipatory bail application was also rejected by this Court (Hon'ble Mr. Justice S.C. Mital) on 3.7.1998. But Mr. Shah pointed out that the regular bail application of the co-accused has already been granted by the learned Sessions Judge on 5th August, 1998, therefore, he ought to have granted anticipatory bail to the present accused petitioner.

(3.) UNDER the circumstances, I think it just and proper to grant anticipatory bail to the accused petitioner.
