Hon'ble Shree Prakash Singh,J.

¶6

Supplementary affidavit filed today by learned counsel for the applicant is taken on record.

¶7

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

¶8

The instant bail application has been filed on behalf of the applicant with the prayer to release him on bail during the trial in Case Crime No. 264 of 2024, under sections 191(3), 190, 109(1), 324(V), 118(1),110, 115(2), 352, 74, 333, 351(3), 191(2) of Bhartiya Nyay Sanhita, 2023, Police Station Bangarmau, District-Unnao.

¶9

Contention of learned counsel for the applicant is that the applicant is innocent and has falsely been implicated in the instant matter due to ulterior motive. He next added that the applicant is not named in the first information report and there is no cogent piece of evidence against him. He added that main accused namely, Shubham Mishra, has already been enlarged on bail by this court vide order dated 25.10.2024 passed in Criminal Misc. Bail Application No. 11405 of 2024 and the case of the present applicant is on better footings. He submits that applicant has 11 cases criminal history which has been explained in the bail application as well as supplementary affidavit and he undertakes that in case, he is granted bail, he will not misuse the liberty of the same and would cooperate in the trial proceedings. Further submitted that the chargesheet has been filed and as such, there is no possibility that the applicant will flee away from the trial proceedings and will not not cooperate in the investigation proceedings.

¶10

Per contra, learned counsel appearing for the State has vehemently opposed the contentions aforesaid and submitted that the applicant is involved in committing the offence as there are ample evidences against him and as such, he is not entitled for any relief, but, he could not dispute the fact that the main accused namely, Shubham Mishra, has already been enlarged

¶11

on bail by this court.

¶12

Having heard learned counsels for the parties and after perusal of material placed on record, it transpires that the applicant is languishing in jail since 25.07.2024; criminal history has been explained by the applicant; the chargesheet has been filed and therefore, there is no possibility that the applicant will flee away from the investigation proceedings; the main accused namely, Shubham Mishra, has already been enlarged on bail by this court coupled with the fact that the applicant has undertaken that if he is granted bail, he will not misuse the liberty of the same and would cooperate in the trial proceedings.

¶13

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 fit case of bail.

¶14

¶15

(1) The applicant shall not tamper with the prosecution evidence by intimidating/ pressurizing the witnesses, or otherwise during the investigation or trial;
