Hon'ble Pankaj Bhatia,J.
Having heard the learned counsel for the applicants, learned AGA and perusing the material available on record, I do not see any merit in the present application warranting any interference by this Court.
At this stage, the learned counsel for the applicants made a prayer that the bail application of the applicants in Special Session Trial No. 50/2020, State Vs. Prince Thakur and others, arising out of case crime no. 111/19, under Sections 147, 323, 504 IPC and under Section 3(2) (va), 3(1) (Dha) of SC/ST Act, P.S. Sahatwar, District Ballia, may be ordered to be considered expeditiously, if possible, on the same day by the concerned Court below where the said case is pending.
Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and the prayer so made by the learned counsel for the applicants, the application is disposed of finally with a direction that in case the applicants surrender before the concerned Court below within a period of 45 days from today and apply for bail, their bail application shall be considered in accordance with law and decided expeditiously preferably on same day in view of the settled law laid down by the Seven Judges' decision of this Court in the case of Amrawati and another Vs. State of U.P., reported in 2004 (57) ALR- 290 as well as judgement passed by Hon'ble Apex Court reported in Lal Kamlendra Pratap Singh Vs. State of U.P., 2009 (3) ADJ 322 (SC) after hearing the Public Prosecutor.
For a period of 45 days from today or till the applicants surrender and apply for bail, whichever is earlier, no coercive action shall be taken against the applicants. However, in case, applicants do not appear before the Court below within the aforesaid period, interim order shall stand vacated automatically.
