Counsel for Applicant :- Sanjay Srivastava,Yogendra Pal Singh Counsel for Opposite Party :- G.A. Hon'ble Ashutosh Srivastava,J. 1. Heard learned counsel for the applicant, Shri Rakesh Kumar Mishra, learned AGA for the State-opposite party and perused the record. 2. This bail application under Section 483 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 has been moved on behalf of accused- applicant, Harsh Verma, seeking enlargement on bail in Case Crime No. 547 of 2024, under Sections 109(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, Police Station -Kankerkhera, District -Meerut. 3. Learned counsel for the applicant argued that the accused- applicant is innocent. He has been falsely implicated in this very case crime number and is languishing in jail since 16.09.2024. He has no criminal antecedent and there is no likelihood of his fleeing from course of justice or tampering with evidence in case of release on bail. 4. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that no offence as alleged in the FIR has been made out against the applicant. The alleged incident has taken place on 12.09.2024 but the F.I.R. has been lodged on 14.09.2024 after two days without any plausible explanation regarding delay. Injured is a mentally challenged person and he roams here and there in the lanes of the area whole day keeps throwing stones at stray dogs and animals. There is no independent eye witness from the public place as the incident has taken place in a crowded place. There is no direct or indirect evidence against the applicant. Hence, bail has been prayed for. 5. Learned AGA has vehemently opposed, but could not dispute the fact that applicant has no criminal antecedent. 6. Considering all those facts and circumstances, the nature of accusations, severity of the punishment in the case of conviction and nature of supporting evidence, reasonable apprehension of tampering with the witness and prima facie case, but without commenting on merit of case, a case for bail is made out. 7. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed. 8. Let the accused-applicant, Harsh Verma, involved in above mentioned case crime number be released on bail, on his executing a personal bond and two reliable sureties each, in the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned, subject to the following conditions: i. The applicant will not tamper with the evidence. ii. The applicant will not indulge in any criminal activity. iii. The applicant will not pressurize/intimidate the prosecution witnesses and co-operate in the trial. iv. The applicant will appear regularly on each and every date fixed by the trial court, unless his personal appearance is exempted through counsel by the court concerned. 9. In the event of breach of any of the aforesaid conditions, the court below will be at liberty to proceed to cancel his bail.
