Hon'ble Virendra Kumar Srivastava,J.
This bail application has been filed by Rajesh Singh @ Patthar for bail in Case Crime No. 622/2018 under Sections 419, 420, 467, 468, 471 I.P.C. & 60 Excise Act, P.S. Kasya, Distt.- Kushi Nagar.
Heard Sri Juned Alam, learned counsel for the applicant as well as learned AGA for the State and perused the material available on record.
Learned counsel for the applicant has submitted that the applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in this case. He has been named in the F.I.R. on the statement of co- accused. Co-accused, Vinod Giri, Sandeep Kumar, Sambhu Kumar, Ibrar Ahmad, who were arrested on spot, have already been bailed out. The applicant is in jail since 1.10.2018. If he be released on bail, he will never misuse his liberty and will co- operate in the trial.
Learned A.G.A. has opposed the prayer for bail but could not dispute the aforesaid facts as argued by the learned counsel for the applicant.
Looking into the facts and circumstances of the case as well as nature and gravity of the offence, material available on record regarding role of applicant 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. Hence this bail application is allowed.
Let the applicant- Rajesh Singh @ Patthar, involved in aforesaid case, be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond with two sureties (one should be of his family members/nearest relative) 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 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, (iii) recording of statement under Section 313 Cr.P.C. and (iv) argument/judgement.
