Heard learned counsel for the applicant and Sri Abhinav Prasad, learned A.G.A. appearing for the State.
It has been contended by the learned counsel for the applicant that the co-accused Inam has been granted bail by this Court on 13.12.2018 in Criminal Misc. Bail Application Nos.39942 of 2018, a copy of said order has been produced by the learned counsel for the applicant, which is taken on record and the case of the applicant stands on identical footing, hence the applicant is also entitled for bail on the ground of parity. The applicant has no previous criminal history. The applicant is in jail since 1.8.2018.
Learned A.G.A. opposed the prayer for bail, but could not dispute the aforesaid fact as argued by the learned counsel for the applicant.
Having heard the submissions of learned counsel of both sides, larger mandate of the Article 21 of the Constitution of India and the dictum of Apex Court in the case of Dataram Singh v. State of U.P. and another, reported in (2018) 3 SCC 22 and without expressing any view on the merit of the case, I find it to be a case of bail.
Without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case let the applicant Dinesh Thakur involved in Case Crime No.862 of 2018, under Sections 3/25 Arms Act, Police Station Sardhana, District Meerut be released on bail on his furnishing personal bonds with two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned with the following conditions:-
