Hon'ble Vivek Kumar Singh,J.
Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned A.G.A. for the State and perused the material on record.
By means of this application, the applicant who is involved in Case Crime No. 146 of 2017, under Section 363 I.P.C., P.S. Rail Bazar, district-Kanpur Nagar and is in jail since 2.8.2017, is seeking enlargement on bail during the trial.
It is submitted by learned counsel for the applicant that similarly placed co-accused Sonia has already been enlarged on bail by this Court by order dated 24.4.2018 passed in Criminal Misc. Bail Application No. 41913 of 2017. He further submitted that since the role of the applicant is identical to that of co-accused Sonia who has already been enlarged on bail, he is also entitled to be enlarged on bail on the ground of parity.
The prayer for bail has vehemently been opposed by learned A.G.A.
Considering the submissions made by learned counsel for the applicant as well as learned A.G.A., this Court is of the view that the applicant has made out a case for grant of bail on the ground of parity.
In view of the above, let the applicant, Teju Rai be released on bail on her executing a personal bond and furnishing two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned in Case Crime No. 146 of 2017, under Section 363 I.P.C., P.S. Rail Bazar, district-Kanpur Nagar with the following conditions :-
1. The applicant will continue to attend and co-operate in the trial pending before the court concerned on the date fixed after release.
2. She will not tamper with the witnesses.
3. She will not indulge in any illegal activities during the bail period.
It is further directed that the identity, status and residence proof of the sureties be verified by the authorities concerned before they are accepted.
In case of breach of any of the above conditions, the trial court will be at liberty to cancel the bail.
