HC rejects bail of SI caught red-handed accepting bribe | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Sept 25: State High Court rejected the bail application of a police sub inspector Suresh Sharma, who was caught red-handed by the Anticorruption Bureau while accepting bribe of Rs 1 lakh. Justice Tashi Rabstan of J&K High Court while rejecting the bail application observed that when a person is arrested on the allegations of commission of heinous offences, two conflicting interests are pitted against each other, that is, personal liberty of individual involved and interest of society so as to prevent crime and punish criminal. Justice Tashi Rabstan while rejecting bail application observed that the applicant is an incharge of police post and an influential person, there is reasonable apprehension that he might temper with or otherwise adversely influence the investigation, which is still going and the statements of witnesses other than complainant are yet to be recorded and if the applicant-accused is enlarged on bail, his presence may influence the investigation by creating fear in the minds of the witnesses. As stated, search under section 165 Cr.P.C has been conducted at the residential home of applicant-accused for some documents regarding investigation of the case FIR NO. 540/2019 u/s 8/21/22 NDPS Act registered in Police Station Rajouri, in which the maternal uncle of the complainant is accused and for whose release the illegal bribe was demanded and accepted in this case, and more investigation is required in this regard to collect the material. |
