Hon'ble Shree Prakash Singh,J.

¶6

Heard learned counsel for the applicant, the learned A.G.A. for the State and perused the record.

¶7

The instant bail application has been filed on behalf of the applicant with a prayer to release the applicant on bail during the trial in Case Crime No.101 of 2024, under Section 323, 504, 506 & 308 I.P.C., P.S. Bijnor, District Lucknow.

¶8

It is contended by learned counsel for the applicant that the applicant is innocent and he has been falsely implicated in the present case due to ulterior motive. He submits that name of the present applicant has been implicated in the F.I.R. due to anonymity as the applicant and the complainant are of the same village. He added that in fact, no such incident has ever taken place and it seems that the victim himself had taken liquor and he fell down somewhere else and received injuries and by way of lodging instant F.I.R., the false story has been concocted and the present applicant has been implicated while alleging that the applicant has committed the offence. He has also shown other falsity in the prosecution story and submitted that there is no previous criminal history of the applicant, which has been explained in para 19 of the bail application and the applicant is languishing in jail since 10.6.2024 and in case, the applicant is granted bail, he will not misuse the liberty and would cooperate in the trial proceedings.

¶9

Per contra, learned A.G.A. vehemently opposed the prayer of bail and submitted that the applicant is involved in committing the aforesaid offence, as such, he is not entitled to be released on bail.

¶10

Having heard the learned counsel for the parties and after perusal of record, it transpires that there is no previous criminal history of the applicant, which has been explained in para 19 of

¶11

the bail application; the applicant is languishing in jail since 10.6.2024 and he has undertaken that he will not misuse the liberty of bail if granted and would co-operate in the trial proceedings.

¶12

Considering the submissions of learned counsel of both sides, nature of accusation and severity of punishment in case of conviction, nature of supporting evidence, prima facie satisfaction of the Court in support of the charge, reformative theory of punishment and considering larger mandate of the Article 21 of the Constitution of India and, without expressing any view on the merits of the case, I find it to be a case of bail.

¶13

¶14
