You will probably get bail from the high court although in 412 and 413 the max punishment is 10 years. Therefore explain all the details and facts to the lawyer. If you want any help in jaipur you may contact me.

If the stolen goods are recovered, he will be granted bail. If the stolen goods are not recovered, police can oppose his bail on the grounds goods are be recovered.

The punishment part comes much later. Now the issue is that of bail. His chances depend upon what has been stated in the FIR. Is he a habitual offender or not, etc.

He shouldn't have confessed that he knew that the goods were stolen. Anyways that testimony should not be accepted in court. He got bail in previous cases. That is ok. He will get bail.

No punishment at this stage.

Focus on Bail. Statement given to police is not admissible in court. Bail may grant as recovery competed.

If he has accepted the guilt then there is no way to appeal for his acquittal. He can only appeal for probation or sentence reduction

Your lawyer can very well put forth his argument strongly to obtain bail under this circumstance.

Allahabad High Court

Ziaul Haque And Another vs State Of U.P. on 20 May, 2020

can be cited as settled law.

The punishment is the last part of trial, i.e., after the case has been properly tried by court.

Habitually dealing in stolen property.—Whoever habitually receives or deals in property which he knows or has reason to believe to be stolen property, shall be punished with [imprisonment for life], or with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to ten years, and shall also be liable to fine.

Bail is a different subject to that of the trial proceedings.

The application for bail before high court has to be argued accordingly.

The IO's acts come only when the charge sheet is filed before the trial court.

413 IPC- Whoever habitually receives or deals in property which he knows or has reason to believe to be stolen property, shall be punished with imprisonment for life, or with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to ten years, and shall also be liable to fine.

- 412- Whoever dishonestly receives or retains any stolen property, the possession whereof he knows or has reason to believe to have been transferred by the commission of dacoity, or dishonestly receives from a person, whom he knows or has reason to believe to belong or to have belonged to a gang of dacoits, property which he knows or has reason to believe to have been stolen, shall be punished with imprisonment for life, or with rigorous imprisonment for a term which may extend to ten years, and shall also be liable to fine.

- Out of this two section 411 is bailable offence 

- Since, recovery of stolen goods already taken place , then there is chances to get bail from High court is maximum. 

- During the trail he can give evidence that the police has not arrested the main culprits , and on this ground he may prove him innocent , that he was not aware that the said items were stolen.

Dear Client,

Since all the charges pressed by the police are non-bailable, it is in the discretionary power of the court to grant bail. The court will grant bail only if it is satisfied that no prejudice will be caused to the prosecution in granting him bail. You will have to build a strong petition for your friend to get bail. 

Thank you

Dear Client,

 

The victim against whom the false FIR has been lodged, can apply for Bail before the Sessions Court or the High Court under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, before the arrest of the victim has been made. An application can also be filed by a person under Sec 482 of Crpc to the High court for getting the frivolous FIR filed against him quashed. Additionally, the victim against whom the false FIR has been lodged, can file a writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution and can thus approach the High Court to quash such false FIR. If the High Court finds that grave injustice has been caused to the victim of the false FIR, then it can go for quashing of the same.

 

Thank you.
