The instant bail application has been filed for bail of applicant- Mohit, involved in Case Crime No. 585 of 2018, under Section 2/3 U.P. Gangster and Anti Social Activities (Prevention) Act, 1986, Police Station Sikandrabad, District Bulandshahar.
Heard learned counsel for the applicant; learned AGA for the State and peruse the record.
Learned counsel for the applicant has submitted that applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated by the police in this case. Applicant is not named in the F.I.R.s, in all the cases shown against him in the gang-chart. Applicant has already been enlarged on bail in all the cases mentioned in the gang- chart and copies whereof has been annexed vide annexure no. 3. Applicant is neither a member nor a leader of any gang and also not involved in any anti-social activities pertaining to gangster act. He is law abiding person having no criminal antecedents apart from the cases shown in the gang chart. The applicant is languishing in jail since 10.7.2018. If he is released on bail, he will never misuse his liberty, terms and conditions of bail and will co-operate in the trial.
Learned A.G.A. has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail but could not disputed the aforesaid facts as argued by the learned counsel for the applicant.
Looking into the facts and circumstances of the case, nature and gravity of the offence, material available on record regarding role of accused and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I am of the view that the bail application is liable to be allowed.
Let the applicant- Mohit involved in the aforesaid case crime be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond with two sureties (one should be of his family members/nearest relatives) each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned with the following conditions:-
(i) The applicant shall not tamper with the prosecution evidence.
(ii) The applicant shall not threaten or harass the prosecution witness.
(iii) The applicant shall file an undertaking to the effect that he shall not seek any adjournment on the dates fixed for evidence when the witnesses are present in court. In case of default of this condition, it shall be open for the trial court to treat it as abuse of liberty of bail and pass orders in accordance with law.
(iv) The applicant shall remain present before the trial court on each date fixed, either personally or through his counsel.
(v) The applicant shall remain present, in person, before the trial court on the dates fixed for (i) opening of the case, (ii) framing of charge and (iii) recording of statement under Section 313 Cr.P.C (iv) argument/judgement.
