Hon'ble Vivek Kumar Singh,J.
Heard Sri Balbeer Singh, learned counsel for the applicant and the learned AGA for the State and perused the material brought on record.
It has been contended by the learned counsel for the applicant that the co- accused Pawan Saini having similar role has been granted bail by this Court vide order dated 24.05.2018 in Criminal Misc. Bail Application No.19590 of 2018, a copy of said order has been produced by the learned counsel for the applicant, which is taken on record and the case of the applicant stands on identical footing, hence the applicant is also entitled for bail on the ground of parity. Criminal history of the applicant has been fairly explained in paragraph 16 of the bail application. The applicant is in jail since 26.08.2017.
Learned A.G.A. opposed the prayer for bail but could not dispute the aforesaid fact as argued by the learned counsel for the applicant.
Having heard the submissions of learned counsel of both sides, larger mandate of the Article 21 of the Constitution of India and the dictum of Apex Court in the case of Dataram Singh v. State of U.P. and another, reported in (2018) 3 SCC 22 and without expressing any view on the merit of the case, I find it to be a case of bail.
Let applicant Satya Prakash be released on bail in Case Crime No.188 of 2017, under Section 8/21 N.D.P.S. Act, Police Station G.R.P. Agra Fort, District Agra on furnishing a personal bond and two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of Magistrate/court concerned, subject to following conditions:-

(ii) The applicant will not tamper with the prosecution evidence and will not delay the disposal of trial in any manner whatsoever. (iii) The applicant will not indulge in any unlawful activities. (iv) The applicant will not misuse the liberty of bail in any manner whatsoever.
The identity, status and residential proof of sureties will be verified by court concerned and in case of breach of any of the conditions mentioned above, court concerned will be at liberty to cancel the bail and send the applicant to prison.
