The Chief Judicial Magistrate (CJM), Faridabad has refused bail to the person accused in GST fraud as filing of final report would not alter case circumstances post bail rejection.
The bench of Jitender Singh (Chief Judicial Magistrate) has observed that filing of the final report after dismissal of the bail application of the accused is not going to change the circumstances of the present case. Therefore, the applicant/accused Arun Garg does not deserve the concession of bail.
The applicant has filed the second bail application of the accused. Final report has already been filed.
However, the grounds on which the first bail application of the accused was dismissed are that if he is released on bail, the accused may commit further offences of similar nature in near future, may abscond from the proceedings of the Court, may also try to influence/intimidate the witnesses, and that the aspect of fraud and forgery is being looked into by the GST Department.
Hence, filing of the final report after dismissal of the bail application of the accused is not going to change the circumstances of the present case.
“Therefore, I am of the considered opinion that applicant/accused Arun Garg does not deserve the concession of bail. Resultantly, the bail application of applicant/accused is hereby dismissed,” the court said.
