registered against the accused petitioners and no cruelty was caused to the bovine animals, therefore, in these circumstances, the accused petitioners may be granted benefit of the bail.

¶19

Per contra, learned Public Prosecutor has opposed the bail application ans submits that there is allegation of illegal transportation of 11 cows and 3 calf.

¶20

Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, particularly to the fact that offences are triable by Magistrate, no cruelty is caused to the bovine animals, the accused petitioners are behind the bars since last one month and trial will take sufficiently long time, therefore, without expressing any opinion on the merits/demerits of the case, this Court is of the opinion that the bail application filed by the accused petitioners deserves to be accepted.

¶21

Consequently, the bail application is allowed. It is ordered that the accused-petitioners (1) Bahadur @ Badar son of Bhagirath and (2) Govind son of Goverdhanlal arrested in connection with F.I.R. No.11/2022 Police Station Pratapgarh, shall be released on bail, if not wanted in any other case, provided each of them furnishes a personal bond of Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty Thousand) and two sureties of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) each (out of which one surety shall be local) to the satisfaction of the learned trial Court for their appearance before that Court on each and every date of hearing and whenever called upon to do so till the completion of the trial.
