Hon'ble Naveen Srivastava,J.
Heard learned counsel for the applicant as well as learned A.G.A. through video conferencing and perused the record.
Accused-applicant, involved in Case Crime No. 76 of 2021, under Section 3/5/8, Uttar Pradesh Prevention of Cow Slaughter Act, Police Station Ganjdundwara District Kasganj, applied for bail.
Learned counsel for the applicant submits that applicant has been falsely implicated in the present case. Recovery of 60 kg beef from the house of the applicant is false and planted by the police.

It is further submitted that applicant has no previous criminal antecedents. Applicant is in jail since 18.03.2021. It is further submitted that there is no possibility of the applicant fleeing away from the judicial process or tampering with the witnesses. In case the applicant is enlarged on bail, he shall not misuse the liberty of bail.
Learned A.G.A. has vehemently opposed the bail application but could not dispute the arguments advanced by learned Counsel for the applicant.
Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, rival contention of learned counsel for the parties, detention of applicant in jail, severity of punishment in case of conviction, alleged recovery from the possession of the applicant and without commenting upon the merit of the case, applicant deserves bail.
