Jitendra v. State of U.P.

Court No. - 86

Case :- CRIMINAL MISC. BAIL APPLICATION No. - 3358 of 2021

Applicant :- Jitendra Opposite Party :- State of U.P. Counsel for Applicant :- Mohd. Afzal Counsel for Opposite Party :- G.A.

Hon'ble Subhash Chand,J.

Heard learned counsel for applicant(s), learned A.G.A. and perused the record.

This bail application has been preferred by the accusedapplicant(s), Jitendra, who is involved in Case Crime No. 340 of 2020, under Sections 304, 324, 323, 504 I.P.C. P.S.- Seohara, District- Bijnor.

Learned counsel for the applicant in support of his prayer for bail submits that the applicant is innocent and he has been falsely implicated in the present case. It is further submitted that co-accused Preetam Singh having similar role to that of applicant has already been granted bail by this Court vide order dated 07.12.2020 passed in Criminal Misc. Bail Application No. 40482 of 2020, therefore, the applicant is also entitled to be released on bail on the ground of parity. The applicant has no previous criminal history, he is not likely to abscond.

On behalf of State bail has been opposed but learned A.G.A. conceded on the point of parity.

In view of the facts and circumstances of the case and the submissions made by learned counsel for both sides and going through the record, without commenting on the merits of the case, I find it a fit case for bail.
