Sh Hemant Sharma, Ld. Counsel for accused/applicant.
Investigating Officer SI Sombir from Police Station
Cyber (South West) in person.
This is 3rd application for regular bail moved on behalf of
accused Raju Bishnoi.
Reply has already been filed to the bail application.
It is argued on behalf of accused that accused has been
falsely implicated in the present case and he is in custody since
03.07.2025. It is submitted that accused is not at flight risk as he
himself surrendered before the Court. It is submitted that accused’s
company account was opened by one Vikas Bishnoi and he had done
all the transactions in the said account. In fact, applicant’s elder
brother had lodged a complaint of cheating and fraud against Vikas
Bishnoi and therefore, accused is noway connected with the cyber
crime. In fact, he is the victim of cheating and fraud committed by
Vikas Bishnoi. It is submitted that investigation is complete qua
accused and evidence is in electronic form, therefore, there is hardly
any possibility of tampering with the same. accused/applicant is
ready to abide any terms and conditions imposed by the Court.

On the other hand, Ld. Addl. PP for the State has
argued that complainant Meena Sarbhai was cheated on the pretext
online KYC updation. Rs 7,14,998/- were siphoned off from her
account. Out of that amount, Rs 4 lacs were transferred in the account
of the accused/applicant in two transactions on 04.10.2023. After
receiving the said amount, accused had transferred Rs 50,000/- to his
other account. He also transferred Rs 51,000/- to the account of
person namely Dheeraj and Rs 2 lacs in the account of Wasim Akram.
During investigation, acused did not cooperate and he surrendered
before the Court only after dismissal of his anticipatory bail
application.
Co-accused Vikash Godara is absconding and yet to be
arrested. It is submitted that accused is a direct beneficiary of the
cheated amount and considering his previous conduct, there is every
possibility that accused may flee away and it would be difficult to
ensure his presence before the Court.
Submissions heard. Record perused.
The allegations against accused are serious in nature.
He is a direct beneficiary of the cheated amount. After receiving the
amount, he subsequently transferred the said amount into further
accounts. He is putting a case that he has been cheated by one person
namely Vikas Godara, who had done all the transaction in his
account, is not relevant at this stage. This might be a defence of the
accused which he would have ample opportunities to prove the same
during the trial. Co accused Vikas Godara is yet to be arrested and
therefore there is every possibility that accused can hamper the

investigation if released on bail. Therefore, considering the above
discussion and allegations levelled against the accused, I am not
inclined to release the accused/applicant Raju Bishnoi on bail.
Accordingly, the bail application of accused/applicant Raju Bishnoi is
dismissed and disposed off accordingly.
Nothing in this order shall be construed as an
expression on the merits of the case, which shall be tried
independently in accordance with law.
A copy of the order be given dasti to Ld. Counsel for
applicant/accused. One copy of the order be sent to the Investigating
Officer for his/her information. One copy of the order be sent to
concerned Jail Superintendent to be served upon the
accused/applicant in compliance of Ajay Verma Vs State for
intimation.
