Heard learned counsel for the appellant and learned Public Prosecutor. Perused the material available on record. 3. Learned counsel for the appellant stated that counsel appearing on behalf of the accused before learned tiral Court was expired and the appellant has no information in this regard, therefore, the appellant could not appear before the learned trial Court on the give date and thereafter remained absent, as a result of which the appellant has been declared absconder and his bail bonds were forfeited and standing arrest warrant has been issued against him by the learned trial Court; the appellant is behind the bars since 19.07.2021; and the trial will take time. With these submissions, learned counsel for the appellants prayed that the benefit of bail may be granted to the appellants. 4. Per contra, learned Public Prosecutor has opposed the appeal and stated that the accused-appellant has been absconded since 2011. 5. Thus, having regard to the entirety of facts and circumstances as available on record and upon a consideration of the arguments advanced, this Court is of the opinion that the appellants deserves to be enlarged on bail. 6. Consequently, the instant appeal is allowed. The impugned order dated 20.07.2021 passed by the Special Judge, SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act Cases, Pali, is set aside. It is ordered that the accused-appellant Hanumanram S/o Sh. Madaram arrested in connection with F.I..R.
