    The Chhattisgarh High Court granted bail to six applicants (Suresh Gupta, Pankaj Soni, Manoj Rajput, Lalit Bhatt, Basant Kumar Soni, and Shankar Lal Chaudhary) arrested for gambling offenses under BNS 2023 and the Chhattisgarh Gambling Prohibition Act 2022. The court ordered their release on personal bonds of Rs. 25,000 each with one surety, considering that the offense is triable by a magistrate, the charge-sheet was filed, and prolonged detention was unnecessary despite some applicants' prior criminal records.
