Hon'ble Rajiv Gupta,J.
Heard learned counsel for applicant, learned AGA for the State and perused the record.
This bail application has been filed by the applicant Mukendra @ Raja seeking bail in Case Crime No. 508 of 2018, under Sections 363, 342, 307 IPC, P.S.Soraon, District Allahabad.
Learned counsel for the applicant has submitted that the applicant is wholly innocent and has been falsely implicated in the present case due to ulterior motive. Learned counsel for the applicant has next submitted that as per the allegations made in the FI.R., the applicant called the victim at his house and thereafter tried to commit sorcery. However, on raising alarm by the victim the applicant and other persons fled away. Learned counsel for the applicant has next submitted that no injury has been caused to the victim. Learned counsel for the applicant has next submitted that the applicant is in jail since 13.6.2018, the police report has already been submitted and the chance of trial being concluded in near future is very bleak.
It is lastly submitted that the applicant has no other criminal history to his credit and the applicant is in jail since 13.6.2018 and in case the applicant is released on bail he will not misuse the liberty of bail and will cooperate in trial..
Learned AGA has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail but could not dispute the aforesaid facts as argued by learned counsel for the applicant.
Keeping in view the nature of the offence, evidence, complicity of the accused, severity of punishment, 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 case for bail.
Let the applicant Mukendra @ Raja be released on bail in the aforesaid case crime number on his furnishing a personal bond and two reliable sureties of the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned subject to the following conditions :-
(i) The applicant shall not indulge in any criminal activity.
(ii) The applicant shall not tamper with the prosecution evidence.
(iii) The applicant shall not pressurize the prosecution witnesses.
(iv) The applicant shall regularly appear on the dates fixed by the trial court unless his personal attendance is exempted by the trial court.
