Heard learned counsel for the applicant, learned AGA for the State and perused the material available on record.

This bail application under Section 439 of Code of Criminal Procedure has been filed by the applicant seeking enlargement on bail in Case Crime No.79 of 2021, under Sections 420, 467, 468, 471, 272 IPC and Section 60/63/72 Excise Act, Police Station Chilh, District Mirzapur.

¶5

I have perused the prosecution story as set up in the impugned first information report and also the bail rejection order.

¶6

Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in the present case due to ulterior motive. He further submits that similarly placed coaccused Chandresh Yadav has already been granted bail by another co-ordinate Bench of this Court vide order dated 27.07.2021 passed in Criminal Misc. Bail Application No.25969 of 2021, copy whereof has been placed on record. He further submits that since the co-accused has already been granted bail, the applicant is also entitled for bail on the ground of parity. The applicant is having no criminal history. The applicant is in jail since 25.05.2021.

On the other hand, learned A.G.A. opposes the application for bail. However, he does not dispute the fact that the similarly placed co-accused has already been granted bail by this Court.

Upon hearing learned counsel for the parties, perusal of record and considering the complicity of accused, severity of punishment as well as totality of facts and circumstances, at this stage without commenting on the merits of the case, I find it a fit case for bail.
