The High Court of Judicature for Rajasthan, Jaipur Bench, recently allowed a bail application filed by Mansingh, son of Ramraj, who was arrested in connection with FIR No. 134/2025. The case was registered at Police Station Kotwali Sawai Madhopur under Sections 303(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and Section 4/21 of the Mines and Minerals (Development & Regulation) Act, 1957. The order was passed by Hon’ble Mr. Justice Anil Kumar Upman on August 8, 2025.
Background of the Case
Mansingh, a 29-year-old resident of Badolas, Sawai Madhopur, was accused of offences under the aforementioned laws. After the completion of the investigation, a charge-sheet was filed by the police. The petitioner’s counsel, Mr. Umesh Dixit, argued that Mansingh was falsely implicated and emphasized that the alleged offences were triable by a Magistrate. He further highlighted that the trial would take considerable time and that Mansingh had already been in custody since his arrest.
The court considered the arguments from both sides, including the opposition by the Public Prosecutor, Mr. N.S. Dhakar. Justice Upman noted that the offences were indeed triable by a Magistrate and that the trial would likely be prolonged. Taking into account the custody period and without commenting on the merits of the case, the court deemed it appropriate to grant bail.

- He must not engage in any other criminal activities during the bail period.
- He is mandated to mark his presence at the concerned police station in the first week of every month until the trial concludes.

This ruling highlights the importance of adhering to bail conditions and the role of law enforcement in monitoring compliance. It also reflects the court’s approach to cases involving Magistrate-triable offences, where prolonged custody is often deemed unnecessary.
