(Crl. Misc. Suspension of Sentence Application No. 1 of 2025)

¶11

Heard learned counsel for the applicant-appellant and learned A.G.A. for the State.

¶12

This application for bail has been moved in the aforesaid criminal appeal arising out of Session Trial No. 509 of 2017 relating to Case Crime No.920 of 2016 under Sections 393, 307/34, 504 I.P.C., P.S. Deoband, District- Saharanpur.

¶13

Learned counsel for the appellant-applicant submits that applicant does not have any criminal antecedent and has falsely been implicated in the present case. As per prosecution case, role of firing is assigned to the applicant, but no firearm injury is found on the body of the alleged injured. Doctor was also examined as PW-3 who categorically deposed before the court that the injury found on the body of the injured was not caused by any firearm but the learned court below failed to appreciate the evidences in correct perspective and convicted the appellant. Learned counsel for the appellant lastly submits that during the course of trial, the appellant-applicant was on bail and the appeal is already admitted. There is no possibility in near future for the final hearing of the present appeal, therefore, the applicant-appellant is entitled for regular bail.

¶14

Learned A.G.A. vehemently opposes the prayer for bail and submits that the court below has passed the impugned order after considering the evidence placed before it at the time of trial and there is no illegality in the same. However, he does not dispute the fact that during the course of trial, the appellant-applicant was on bail and after conviction, trial court enlarged the appellants on interim bail.

¶15

Considering the arguments advanced by the learned counsel for the appellant-applicant, learned A.G.A. and going through the record as well as the judgment of the court below dated 10.12.2024, it is evident that appellant was on bail during the course of trial and after conviction, trial court enlarged the appellant on interim bail. In such circumstances, this Court is of the view that the applicant-appellant is entitled for regular bail till the outcome of the instant appeal.

¶16

Hence, prima facie , case for bail is made out, at this stage.

¶17

Accordingly, the application for bail is allowed.

¶18

Let the applicant-appellant, namely, Aabad involved in Session Trial No. 509 of 2017 ( supra ) be released on bail on his furnishing personal bonds and two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned, subject to following conditions;

¶19

(i) Fifty percent of fine imposed by the trial court shall be deposited by the appellant within three months from the date of his release.

¶20

(ii) The appellant-applicant shall cooperate in the disposal of appeal without seeking unnecessary adjournment.

¶21

(iii) The appellant-applicant shall not indulge in any criminal activity or commission of any crime after being released on bail.

¶22

In case of breach of any of the above conditions, it shall be a ground for cancellation of bail.

¶23

As soon as personal bonds and sureties are furnished, photocopies of the same are directed to be transmitted to this Court forthwith by the trial court concerned to be kept on record of this appeal.
