Hon'ble Siddharth,J.
Heard learned counsel for the applicant as well as the learned AGA for the State and perused the material placed on record.
The instant bail application has been filed on behalf of the applicant, Ram Pravesh Yadav with a prayer to release him on bail in Case Crime No. 111 of 1992 (S.T. No. 74 of 2006), under Sections 395, 397, 412 IPC, Police Station Narhi, District- Ballia, during pendency of trial.
It is argued by the learned counsel for the applicant that the applicant was earlier enlarged on bail. He is absconding from trial on 05.10.2016. He has surrendered before the court below. The applicant is languishing in jail since 13.8.2018. In case, the applicant is released on bail, he will not misuse the liberty of bail.
Per contra learned A.G.A. has opposed the prayer for bail of the applicant by contending that the innocence of the applicant cannot be adjudged at pre trial stage, therefore, he does not deserves any indulgence. In case the applicant is released on bail he will again indulge in similar activities and will misuse the liberty of bail.
Having considered the submissions of the parties, larger mandate of the Article 21 of the Constitution of India and the dictum of Apex Court in the case of Dataram Singh Vs. State of U.P. and another, reported in (2018) 3 SCC 22 and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, let the applicant Ram Pravesh Yadav involved in the aforesaid crime be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond and two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned with the following conditions that :-
1. The applicant shall not tamper with the prosecution evidence by intimidating/ pressurizing the witnesses, during the investigation or trial.
2. The applicant shall cooperate in the trial sincerely without seeking any adjournment.
3. The applicant shall not indulge in any criminal activity or commission of any crime after being released on bail.
4. In case, the applicant fails to appear even on one date in trial, bail granted to him shall stand cancelled and he shall be taken into custody forthwith.
In case, of breach of any of the above conditions, it shall be a ground for cancellation of bail.
Identity, status and residence proof of the applicant and sureties be verified by the court concerned before the bonds are accepted.
The concerned court below is directed to conclude the trial against the applicant, as expeditiously, within a period of one year from the date of production of the certified copy of this order.
