Hon'ble Ajit Singh,J.
Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned A.G.A. for the State.
This is a bail application on behalf of the applicant in connection with Case Crime No. 167 of 2019 under Sections 419, 420,467, 468, 471, 140 I.P.C., P.S. Babina, District Jhansi.
The contention of the learned counsel for the applicant is that the accused was not named in the FIR. The accused is absolutely innocent and he has been falsely implicated in the present case due to ulterior motive. He submitted that there is allegation in the F.I.R. that the main accused Satyendra Yadav gave an advertisement on whatsapp no. 6392862328 and invited persons to join Indian Army. As per F.I.R., there is allegation that his associate had taken 50-50 Rs. for filling form and they also took Rs. 2,000/- Rs from each candidate who reached there, with assurance that they will be given clearance without taking part in running. It has been alleged in the F.I.R. that the accused has duped several innocent youngsters. He next submitted that nothing incriminating has been recovered from the possession of the of the present applicant. Offence is triable by the Court of Magistrate.
He has placed reliance in the case of Data Ram Vs. State of
U.P. and others, 2018(3) SCC 22. The accused is languishing in jail since 03.06.2019 and in case, he is released on bail, he will not misuse the liberty of bail and will cooperate in the trial.
Learned A.G.A. has opposed the bail plea.
Considering the overall facts and circumstances, the nature of allegations, the gravity of offence, the severity of the punishment, the evidence appearing against the accused but without expressing any opinion on merits, this Court finds it to be a fit case for bail.
Accordingly, the bail application stands allowed.
Let the applicant Vishnu Singh Rajpoot be released on bail in the aforesaid case crime number on his furnishing a personal bond and two reliable sureties each of the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned subject to the following conditions:-
i) The applicant will continue to attend and co-operate in the trial pending before the court concerned on the date fixed after release.
