JUDGMENT 1. - The contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that in the instant case, Ganja was recovered not from accused-petitioner but it was on the information given by one of the co-accused after his arrest. Learned counsel for the accused-petitioner submits that this statement is not admissible in law. He has submitted that in the above circumstances on the basis of he statement of co-accused, the petitioner cannot be involved. In support of his submission, learned counsel for the accused-petitioner has placed reliance on a decision rendered by this Court in case title Lachhu @ Laxmi v. Union of India, reported in 2004(3) RCC 1411 . 2. The learned P.P. has opposed the application. It has been submitted by the learned PP that the matter is pending for investigation yet, therefore, the accused-petitioner should not be given benefit of bail. 3. I have carefully considered the submissions made before me and perused the impugned order. 4. It is an admitted position of facts that contra-baned material Ganja has not been recovered from the accused-petitioner and one of the co-accused after his arrest and after lapse of couple of days gave information that accused-petitioner is also involved in this case. In the above facts and circumstances of the case, I deem it proper to give benefit of bail to the accused-petitioner, for the reason that statement of co-accused is not permissible in evidence as has been held in case of Lachhu @ Laxmi v. Union of India . In view of the above the bail application moved by the accused-petitioner requires to be allowed. 5. In the result, the bail application is allowed and it is hereby directed that applicant (1) Girraj S/o Ratanlal @ Ramratan shall be released on bail in FIR No. 255/2007 of P.S. Mangrol, District Baran provided that he furnishes a personal bond in the sum of Rs. 30,000/- along with two sureties in the sum of Rs. 15,000/- each to the satisfaction of the concerned Court with the stipulation to appear before that Court on all dates of hearing and as and when called upon to do so till conclusion of the trial.Bail application allowed. *******
