Heard learned counsel for the applicant, learned A.G.A. for the State and perused the record of the present bail application.
The present bail application has been filed by the applicant Monu Alias Kapil Kumar with a prayer to enlarge him on bail in Case Crime No. 704 of 2020, under Section 302 I.P.C., Police Station Majhola, District Moradabad.
Learned counsel for the applicant has submitted that the applicant has been falsely implicated in the present case. The named FIR was lodged against the applicant only on the basis of suspicion as the deceased and family members suspected that the applicant had illicit relationship with the wife of the deceased. Further submission is that there is no eye witness account to support the FIR version. There is no recovery from the possession of the applicant. All the injuries, which has been caused by blunt object and no sharp edged weapon has been used for the commission of the offence. In respect of criminal history, it has been submitted that in that case final report was given by the police after investigation. It is further submitted that accused applicant is prepared to furnish sureties and bonds and there is no possibility of his either fleeing away from the judicial process or tampering with the evidence. Applicant is languishing in jail since 23.6.2020 and undertakes that he will not misuse the liberty of bail, if granted and cooperate in trial.
Learned A.G.A. has vehemently opposed the prayer for grant of bail to the applicant but could not dispute the aforesaid facts as argued by the learned counsel for the applicant. He has further submitted that after investigation, the police has submitted charge sheet against the accused.
Upon hearing the submissions made by learned counsel of both sides, considering the contention made above, and without commenting on the merits of the case, I find it to be a fit case for bail.
