This bail application has been filed by the applicant Sangram Singh seeking bail in Case Crime No. 03 of 2018, under Sections 323, 504, 308, 325 IPC, Police Station Ghazipur, District Fatehpur.
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 prosecution own case, as many as four persons are said to have assaulted the victim Anil, due to which, he suffered injuries on his person. As per the supplementary injury report, the victim suffered fracture injury on his parietal bone and the author of the said injury has not been specified even in the statement of the victim.
Learned counsel for the applicant has next submitted that the applicant has no criminal history to his credit and he is in jail since 04.01.2019 and in case, he is released on bail, he will not misuse the liberty of bail and will cooperate in the trial by all means. Lastly, it is submitted that there is no chance of applicant fleeing away from judicial process or tampering with the witnesses.
Per contra, learned AGA has opposed the prayer for bail but could not dispute the aforesaid facts and the fact that the applicant has no criminal history to his credit and he is in jail since 04.01.2019.
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.
