Heard learned counsel for the applicant, learned AGA for the State and perused the record.
By means of this application, the applicant who is involved in case crime no. 212 of 2018, under Sections 498A, 304B, 201 IPC and 3/4 D.P. Act, P.S. Kotwali Mehrauni, District- Lalitpur is seeking enlargement on bail during the trial.
Learned counsel for the applicant in support of his application for bail submits that the applicant is Jaith and has been falsely implicated in the present case. There are as many as four persons named in the FIR attributing a general role to all the accused. It is further submitted that autopsy report of the deceased clearly shows that she died on account of drowning. It is also submitted that there is no external injury over the person of the deceased and the applicant has annexed a Pariwar Register in support of establishing the fact that he was residing separately, therefore, the applicant is entitled for bail. The applicant is in jail since 8.8.2018 and having no criminal antecedents except the present one.
Learned AGA opposed the prayer for bail but could not dispute the aforesaid facts and the legal submissions as argued by the learned counsel for the applicant.
Keeping in view that the applicant is Jaith of the deceased, the nature of the offence, evidence, complicity of the accused, submissions of the learned counsel for the parties and without expressing any opinion on merits of the case, I am of the view that the applicant has made out a fit case for bail.
