In 138 NIA case, surity of accused submitted papers and accused was released on bail. On verification, subsequently, papers such as Land papers and bank fdr were found to be fake. Knowing it, accused submitted another surities and got discharged earlier one. My query is whether accused, surities who submitted forged papers to the court for liable for any punishment even discharged later on.

The instance cannot be treated as a fault or offense on the part of the accused. So, you can't make the accused liable for the fault of the surety. You may however file another case against the surety for cheating and fraud, but with bleak chance for getting any success in the absence of any evidence in your hands, if papers have already been discharged by the court on submission of the fresh surety.

Your efforts are likely to go waste.
