Bail application REJECTED — Allahabad High Court, Court No. 70 (Neutral Citation 2025:AHC:141653): Criminal Misc. Bail Application No. 15751 of 2025, decided 19.8.2025 by Hon'ble Dr. Gautam Chowdhary, J. Applicant Vivek Kumar Chauhan, held in custody since 12.01.2025 in Case Cr. 303/2024 under Ss. 191(2)/318(4)/329(3)/338/336(3)/340(2)/61(2) BNS (police-station name garbled in source), District Aligarh, sought release on bond. Applicant's counsel pleaded false implication, omission of his name from the primary information report, absence of past record, indigence and physical disability, ongoing treatment for a leg injury sustained in Aligarh jail (including while in custody), denial of having presented any 'fake brother' or executed any forged signature, and non-enjoyment of any public benefit. Counsel for the complainant and the trial Magistrate (Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Chandan Jaswal; hearing conducted by video conferencing) strongly objected: quoted statements alleged fabrication of fake Aadhaar-card, PAN-card and marriage-certificate-type documents, the applicant's appearance as a purported kinsman, solemnisation of a marriage under the name printed as 'मकोवहर भमारदमाज' (spelling uncertain), and deception practised under another's name in connection with a plot-sale-linked transaction; the offence was urged to be grave and punishable. With the trial Magistrate having recorded that all facts and circumstances disclosed no justification for release, the Court, without further ado, rejected the applicant's bail application.
