He further submits that it is not believable that after such an incident, the complainant would first go to leave his wife to the College where she is studying and after coming back, lodge the F.I.R.,therefore, a false F.I.R. has been lodged on account of some incident on road. He further submits that the casteist remarks are not mentioned in the F.I.R. and the same has been developed in the statements under Section 180 and 183 of Bhartiya Nagrik Suraksha Sanhita. The complainant has also not stated anything about the casteist remarks. He further submits that the applicant has been enlarged on bail in two cases against him, copies of which have been filed alongwith the supplementary affidavit. He further submits that the appellant is in jail since 14.11.2024 and in case he is released on bail he will not misuse the liberty granted by this Court and assist the trial court in early disposal of trial.

¶10

Having considered the submissions of learned counsel for the parties and gone through the records,it is apparent that the alleged incident is of 2:30 p.m., whereas the F.I.R. has been lodged at 23:02 in the night and as per own averment of the complainant in the F.I.R.,after the incident, he first went to Lucknow to leave his wife in the College where she is studying and after returning, lodged the F.I.R.. It is also apparent that there are no casteist remarks in the F.I.R. and the same has been developed in the statements under Section 180 and 183 Cr.P.C. respectively. The appellant has been enlarged on bail in two cases against him and the court below has passed the impugned order without considering the same, which is liable to be set aside and the case for bail of the appellant is made out.
