3. Heard the learned counsel for the applicant and learned APG and perused the record carefully.
4. The learned APG, outrightly, contends that as the accused/ applicant has been challaned in this case under section 201, P.P.C., which is though punishable for 7 severs, but it is bailable. At this juncture, learned counsel for the complainant vehemently opposed and confronted that the offence is punishable for life and not bailable and he referred to different sections of the P.P.C., which were irrelevant and subsequently, he read section 201, P.P.C. And found that the same is bailable, therefore, by a short order the bail was granted to the applicant in the morning, therefore, the applicant is granted bail subject to furnishing surety in the sum of Rs, 1,00,000 (Rupees one lac only) with P.R. Bond in the like amount to the satisfaction of the trial Court.
