While grating bail, the court perused the contents of the bail application, police report, CPO objections and observed that accused has remained in the police custody for more than five days which mean that IO of the case has already availed sufficient time for conducting investigation of the case. It is trap case and alleged tainted money have already been recovered from the accused-applicants and nothing remains to be recovered from him. Offence u/s 5(2) PC Act is punishable with imprisonment for a term which shall not be less than one year but may extend to seven years and shall also be liable to fine. As per police report applicant/accused is a Government employee which means accused/ applicant is permanent resident of J&K and having his moveable and immovable property in the State. Generally, a government employee is not supposed to flee from the trial of the case.

With these observations Court accepted bail application of the accused and directed that accused to furnish bail bond to the amount of Rs 50,000 and personal bond to the same amount with the directions that he will remain present before the IO during investigation of the case as and when required.
