Hon'ble Siddharth,J.
Heard learned counsel for the applicant as well as the learned AGA for the State and perused the material placed on record.
The instant bail application has been filed on behalf of the applicant, Ajay Kumar Mishra with a prayer to release him on bail in Case Crime No.
153 of 2018, under Sections 420, 467, 468, 471 IPC, Police Station Prem Nagar, District- Bareilly, during pendency of trial.
It is argued by the learned counsel for the applicant that the applicant is absolutely innocent and has been falsely implicated in the present case with some ulterior motive. The allegation against the applicant is that non bailable warrants were issued against him and when the police reached his house to execute the non bailable warrant, he produced a 'Robkar' which was found to be forged.The allegation is that he has committed forgery by forging the 'Robkar'. The argument is that 'Robkar' was given to him by two persons on the fees of Rs. 4,000/- which is not in his handwriting. The criminal history of the applicant has been properly explained in paragraph -14 of the affidavit filed in support of the bail application.The applicant is languishing in jail since 30.3.2018 In case, the applicant is released on bail, he will not misuse the liberty of bail.
Per contra learned A.G.A. has opposed the prayer for bail of the applicant by contending that the innocence of the applicant cannot be adjudged at pre trial stage, therefore, he does not deserves any indulgence. In case the applicant is released on bail he will again indulge in similar activities and will misuse the liberty of bail.
Having considered the submissions of the parties, larger mandate of the Article 21 of the Constitution of India and the dictum of Apex Court in the case of Dataram Singh Vs. State of U.P. and another reported in (2018)3 SCC 22 and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, let the applicant Ajay Kumar Mishra involved in the aforesaid crime be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond and two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned with the following conditions that :-
