Neutral Citation No. - 2025:AHC:72792 Court No. - 84 Case :- CRIMINAL MISC. BAIL APPLICATION No. - 44530 of 2024 Applicant :- Vinod Kumar Opposite Party :- State of U.P. Counsel for Applicant :- Kapil Tyagi Counsel for Opposite Party :- G.A. Hon'ble Deepak Verma,J. 1. Heard learned counsel for the applicant, learned AGA for the State and perused the material placed on record. 2. This second bail application has been filed with a prayer to release the applicant on bail in Case Crime No. 334 of 2023, registered under Sections 323, 504, 506, 342, 34, 376, 354, 498-A I.P.C. & Section 3/4 of Dowry Prohibition Act, Police Station- Sector 113, NOIDA, District- Gautam Buddha Nagar, during pendency of the trial. 3. Learned counsel for the applicant submitted that the applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in the present case due to ulterior motive. Instant second bail application on behalf of the applicant has been filed on the ground that charge has been framed on 20.07.2024 and till date no prosecution witness has been produced for examination. He further contended that the co- accused have been granted bail, hence, the applicant may also be released on bail on the same footing. The applicant is languishing in jail since 11.09.2023. In case, the applicant is released on bail, he will not misuse the liberty of bail and co-operate in trial. 4. Per contra, learned A.G.A. vehemently opposed the bail prayer of the applicant and submits that, prima facie, offence is made out against the applicant, as such, applicant should not be enlarged on bail. 5. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and submissions advanced by learned counsel for the parties and looking to seriousness and gravity of offence, evidence, complicity of the accused, I do not find it is a fit case for bail to the applicant. 6. Accordingly, the second bail application of the applicant- Vinod Kumar, involved in the aforesaid case crime, is hereby rejected at this stage. 7. However, the trial court is directed to decide the trial of the case in accordance with law, as expeditiously as possible, without granting any unnecessary or long adjournments to either of the parties, preferably within a period of nine months from the date of production of a certified copy of this order, if there is no other legal impediment.
