• Bail rejection in session court, what to do next

Good day everyone,
Required good suggestion.. kindly help..

My brother was working with a good XXXX bank as a Sales manager for Mortgage/home loan in 2013..
Now there is a case from 2016 on him that because he has not verified NOC of the society, bank had given loan to said person.. who is fraud.. total file was fraud.. and the person is missing with wife.
The flat on which loan was taken also belongs to someone else..
Person who has taken home loan of 72 lakhs is missing and now my brother is only caught in the full case.. (kindly note my brother was cooperating with the police from last 2 yrs and explaning them about the scenario) so how can only 1 sales person can commit this big crime.

My borther is in jail from 20/Nov/2020.
Magistrate court of vikhroli and Mumbai session court both had rejected the bail application mentioning that he is the prime accuse..
IPC mentioned in the FIR - 420, 406, 465, 467, 471, 34.
Charge sheet is not yet filed.

Please requires your valuable suggestions about the next step...

1) There are two options before him viz: a) to appeal before high court against session court order of rejection of bail; or b) to move the trial court pleading acquittal, on the grounds that there is no material brought on record till now by investigating authorities to implicate him. 

2) Which of the two options is best suited can be adviced only after an exhaustive consultation session. You need to visit me to consult, and if required I will consult your brother too, in custody. 

3) I'm based in Mumbai /NaviMumbai just as you are. So it shouldn't be much difficult for you to visit me for exhaustive consultation.

If the session court has dismissed the bail application, you may file an application for bail before high court.

You obtain a copy of the dismissal order of the sessions court and file it along with the bail application before high court.

 

Besides Chapter XXXIII Section 436 to 439, another provision,
which deals with the concept of bail is Section 167 of the Code of Criminal
Procedure, which is generally termed as “Default Bail”. While considering
the aspect of bail, both these provisions are to be studied in the context of
each other.
The Art.21 of the Constitution of India declares that “No person
shall be deprived of his life or personal liberty except according to procedure
established by law. The concept of bail is closely related to Article 21 of the
Constitution. It safeguards the personal liberty of a person from his detention.

Accused person may be required for being identified by witnesses
during investigation is not a sufficient ground for refusing bail if he gives an
undertaking that he shall comply with such directions as may be given by the
Court.

When a person accused or suspected of the commission of an
offence punishable with imprisonment which may extend to seven years or
more or abatement of, or conspiracy or attempt to commit, any such offence,
is released on bail under sub-section (1) the Court may impose following
condition which the Court considers necessary in order to ensure that (i)
such person shall attend in accordance with the conditions of the bond (ii)
shall not commit an offence similar to the offence of which he is accused or
of the commission of which he is suspected, or(iii) otherwise in the interests
of justice

 

Hence you may file a bail application before high court on the above lines.

1. The only remedy now is to approach the Bombay High Court for grant of bail.

2. Your brother will have to show that either there is no prima facie material to connect him with the offence or his custodial interrogation is not required in the given circumstances. Time and again it has been reiterated by the Supreme Court that bail is rule and jail is an exception.

Dear Sir,

You may approach for getting bail and most probably it will grant bail as your brother is in judicial custody and not required for further investigation and also not in reach of bank documents.
