Heard learned counsel for the applicant as well as learned AGA for the State of U.P and perused the material available on record.
Contention raised on behalf of the applicant has been confined to the extent that the applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in this case. The applicant is not named in the first information report. No offence has been committed by the applicant. Nothing incriminating has been recovered from the possession of the applicant. There is no credible evidence appearing against the applicant to connect him with the alleged offence. In case, the applicant is admitted to bail, there is no possibility of his absconding or misusing the liberty of bail. The applicant is languishing in jail since 8.3.2019, whereas co- accused Noore Khan with same degree of accusation has been enlarged on bail and Ansar, in confessional statement of whom, name of accused applicant is brought, has also been enlarged on bail in Criminal Misc. Bail Application 42004 of 2018, vide order dated 31.10.2018. Hence, bail has been prayed for.
Learned AGA has opposed prayer for bail. However, he has not disputed the aforesaid facts.
Without entering into merit of the case but considering the facts and circumstances of the case, nature of accusation and the severity of punishment in case of conviction and the nature of supporting evidence, reasonable apprehension of tampering with witness or apprehension of threat to the complainant and prima facie satisfaction of the Court in support of the charge, the applicant is entitled to be released on bail.
Accordingly, bail application is allowed.
