Hon'ble Ajit Singh,J.
Learned counsel for the applicant is permitted to make necessary correction in the bail application.
Heard learned counsel for the applicant and the learned A.G.A.
This is a bail application on behalf of the applicant Mannu @ Qamaruddin in connection with Case Crime No.126 of 2021, under Section 3/5/8/(1) Prevention of Cow Slaughter Act, Police Station Jahanaganj, district Azamgarh.
The submission of learned counsel for the applicant is that the applicant is quite innocent and has been falsely implicated in the present case with the ulterior motive. He submitted that co-accused Imteyaz has been admitted to the concession of bail by another Bench of this Court by order dated 28.09.2021 passed in Criminal Misc. Bail Application No.30349 of 2021, copy whereof has been supplied by learned counsel for the applicant, which is taken on record and the role assigned to the applicant is similar to the role of the other co-accused, who have already been enlarged on bail. He claims parity. He submitted that the applicant is languishing in jail since 10.08.2021, hence he is entitled to be released on bail and he will not misuse the liberty of bail and will cooperate in the trial.
Learned A.G.A. has opposed the bail plea. However, learned A.G.A. does not dispute the factum of parity.
Considering the overall facts and circumstances, the nature of allegations, the gravity of offence, the severity of the punishment, the evidence appearing against the accused, submission of learned counsel for the parties, considering the law laid down in the case of Data Ram Vs. State of U.P. and others, 2018 (3), SCC, 2 and also the fact that aforesaid co-accused has been admitted to the concession of bail by this Court, but without expressing any opinion on merits, this Court finds it to be a fit case for bail.
Accordingly, the bail application stands allowed.
Let the applicant Mannu @ Qamaruddin involved in the aforesaid crime be released on bail on executing a personal bond and furnishing two sureties 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 witnesses;
iii) The applicant shall appear on the date fixed by the trial court;
iv) The applicant shall not commit an offence similar to the offence of which the applicant is accused, or suspected of the commission;
v) The applicant shall not directly or indirectly make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as to dissuade such person from disclosing facts to the Court or to any police officer or tamper with the evidence.
The party shall file computer generated copy of such order downloaded from the official website of High Court Allahabad, self attested by learned counsel for the applicant along with a self attested identity proof of the said persons (preferably Aadhar Card) mentioning the mobile number (s) to which the said Aadhar Card is linked before the concerned Court/Authority/Official.
