The applicant is not named in the first information report. No offence has been committed by the applicant. False recovery has been shown from the possession of the applicant. Nothing incriminating has been recovered from the possession of the applicant and there is no independent public witness to the fact of alleged recovery. Offence alleged is triable by the Magistrate Ist Class. In case, the applicant is admitted to bail, there is no possibility of his absconding or misusing the liberty of bail. The applicant has no previous criminal history and is languishing in jail since 21.12.2018.
Learned AGA has opposed prayer for bail. However, he has not disputed the aforesaid facts.
Without entering into merit of the case but considering the facts and circumstances of the case, nature of accusation and the severity of punishment in case of conviction and the nature of supporting evidence, reasonable apprehension of tampering with witness or apprehension of threat to the complainant and prima facie satisfaction of the Court in support of the charge, the applicant is entitled to be released on bail.
