Counsel for Applicant :- Rakhi Kumari,Kundan Kumar Counsel for Opposite Party :- G.A. Hon'ble Ashutosh Srivastava,J. Heard Shri Anvir Singh, learned counsel for the applicant, Shri Arimardan Yadav, learned AGA for the State-respondents and perused the record. This bail application under Section 439 Cr.P.C. has been moved on behalf of accused-applicant, Sachin Banvasi, seeking enlargement on bail in Case Crime No.101 of 2023, under Section 366 of the Indian Penal Code, Police Station Badlapur, District Jaunpur. Allegation in the FIR is that applicant enticed away the daughter of the informant. 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 13.05.2023. As per statement of victim, recorded under Section 164 Cr.P.C., she went with the applicant on her own free will. As per medical report, victim is aged about 18 years old. 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. Hence, bail has been prayed for. Learned AGA has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail. Considering all above 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. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed. Let the accused-applicant, Sachin Banvasi, 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: 1. The applicant will not tamper with the evidence. 2. The applicant will not indulge in any criminal activity. 3. The applicant will not pressurize/intimidate the prosecution witnesses and co-operate in the trial. 4. 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.
