Hon'ble Ajai Tyagi,J.
Heard learned counsel for the applicant, learned Additional Government Advocate for the State and perused the record.
This bail application has been filed on behalf of the applicant with a prayer to release him on bail in Case Crime No.1379 of 2018, under Sections 409, 420, 467, 468, 471, 120-B IPC and Section 39 of the AADHAR Card Act, 2016 and 66(C) IT Act and 3/7 E.C. Act, Police Station-Lisari Gate, District-Meerut, during the pendency of trial.
It is argued by the learned counsel for the applicant that the applicant has been falsely implicated in the present case due to ulterior motive. He is innocent and has no criminal antecedent. It has further been submitted that the co-accused Shahnawaz having identical role has already been released on bail by a co- ordinate Bench of this Court vide order dated 12.03.2021 in Criminal Misc.Bail Application No.9873 of 2021, therefore, applicant is also entitled for bail on the ground of parity. The circumstances which, according to the counsel, led to the false implication of the accused, have also been touched upon at length. It has been assured on behalf of the applicant that he is ready to cooperate with the process of law and shall faithfully make himself available before the court whenever required. The applicant is languishing in jail since 5.1.2021.
Per contra, learned Additional Government Advocate has vehemently opposed the bail prayer of the applicant.
Keeping in view the nature of the offence, evidence, complicity of the accused, submissions of the learned counsel for the parties, I am of the view that it is a fit case to release the applicant on bail. Hence, the bail application is hereby allowed.
Let the applicant-Vijay be released on bail in the aforesaid case crime number on furnishing a personal bond and two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned.
The party shall file computer generated copy of order downloaded from the official website of High Court Allahabad, self attested by it along with a self attested identity proof of the said person(s) (preferably AADHAR card) mentioning the mobile number(s) to which the said AADHAR card is linked.
The concerned court/authority/official shall verify the authenticity of the computerized copy of the order from the official website of High Court Allahabad and shall make a declaration of such verification in writing.
It is clarified that anything said in this order is limited to the purpose of determination of this bail application and will in no way be construed as an expression on the merits of the case. The trial court shall be absolutely free to arrive at its independent conclusions on the basis of evidence led unaffected by anything said in this order.
