Heard learned counsel for the applicant as well as learned AGA for the State and perused the material placed on record.

Applicant seeks bail in Case Crime No. 01 of 2025, under Sections 2 & 3 of U.P. Gangster and Anti-Social Activities (Prevention) Act, 1986, Police Station - Farah, District - Mathura, during the pendency of trial.

It is argued by the learned counsel for the applicant that the prosecution under the Gangsters Act has been launched against the applicant on the basis of two criminal cases shown in the gang chart in which he has already been enlarged on bail by the court concerned. Criminal history of seven more cases has been assigned to the applicant which has been explained in the affidavit. He has been falsely implicated in the present case due to police rivalry. He is not a member of any gang. The applicant is not a previous convict. The applicant is languishing in jail since 02.01.2025 and in case, he is enlarged on bail, he will not misuse the liberty of bail and shall cooperate with trial.

Per contra, learned A.G.A. has vehemently opposed the bail prayer of the applicant.
