    Summary of Case 436/2026 The 4th Additional Sessions Judge, Bhavnagar conditionally allowed Vasimbhai Rajakbhai Pancha's application for permission to obtain a passport for Hajj pilgrimage despite a pending criminal case involving serious offences. The court held that an accused on bail can obtain passport if court permission is obtained, relying on the Gujarat High Court precedent in *Dhiren Baxi vs Regional Passport Officer*, which exempts citizens with pending cases from passport denial if they secure court authorization. The applicant was permitted to obtain a 5-year passport subject to conditions: filing an undertaking not to leave India without court permission and submitting the newly issued passport within 7 days. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
