Counsel for Applicant :- Anil Kumar Shukla Counsel for Opposite Party :- G.A.
Hon'ble Mrs. Manju Rani Chauhan,J.
Heard Sri Anil Kumar Shukla, learned counsel for the applicant, Sri Pankaj Srivastava learned A.G.A. for the State and perused the material on record.
The instant bail application has been filed on behalf of the applicant, Yogendra with a prayer to release him on bail in Case Crime No. 490 of 2018, under Sections 307, 504 IPC, Police Station- Linkroad, District- Ghaziabad, during pendency of trial.
On 21.08.2018 at 10.50 p.m. one Sumit neighbor of the informant was quarreling with one accused Sumit Mavi and Yogendra in front of the house of informant, by chance the brother of the informant Tarun came by car and hit the accused persons without any intention or motive. The accused persons started abusing the brother of first informant and assaulted him by knife due to which he sustained injury near chest as well as right arm. The injuries are simple in nature and in the statement of the injured there is nothing to show that applicant had intention to kill the injured. The applicant is languishing in jail since 21.08.2018. The applicant has no criminal history. In case, he is released on bail, he will not misuse the liberty of bail and will cooperate in the trial by all means. Lastly, it is submitted that there is no chance of applicant fleeing away from judicial process or tampering with the witnesses.
Per contra learned A.G.A. has opposed the bail prayer of the applicant by contending that the innocence of the applicant cannot be adjudged at pre trial stage, therefore, he does not deserves any indulgence. In case the applicant is released on bail he will again indulge in similar activities and will misuse the liberty of bail.
Having considered the submissions of the parties and the dictum of Apex Court in the case of Dataram Singh Vs. State of U.P. and another, reported in (2018) 3 SCC 22 and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, let the applicant involved in the aforesaid crime be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond and two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned with the following conditions that :-
1. The applicant shall not tamper with the prosecution evidence by intimidating/ pressurizing the witnesses, during the investigation or trial.
2. The applicant shall cooperate in the trial sincerely without seeking any adjournment.
3. The applicant shall not indulge in any criminal activity or commission of any crime after being released on bail.
In case, of breach of any of the above conditions, it shall be a ground for cancellation of bail.
Identity, status and residence proof of the applicant and sureties be verified by the court concerned before the bonds are accepted.
