Learned counsel for the applicant has submitted that the present applicant has been falsely implicated in this case as he has not committed any offence as alleged in the prosecution story. 4. Attention has been drawn towards the impugned First Information Report (in short F.I.R.) which shows that for the alleged incident dated 28.04.2024 the impugned F.I.R. has been lodged on 18.11.2024 pursuant to the order being passed in the application filed under Section 156 (3) Cr.P.C.. As a matter of fact, there was some monetary dispute between the parties and on such dispute the parties entered into compromise at the police station. Thereafter, having ulterior motive and extraneous design an application under Section 156 (3) Cr.P.C. has been filed implicating the present applicant falsely. 5. Learned counsel for the applicant has stated that the present applicant is having no prior criminal history of any kind whatsoever. The charge-sheet has been filed in this case. He has undertaken on behalf of the present applicant that the applicant shall not misuse the liberty of bail, if so granted by this Court, and shall abide by all terms and conditions of the bail order and shall cooperate in the trial proceedings properly. 6. On the other hand, learned Additional Government Advocate has opposed the prayer for bail of the present applicant by submitting that since the role of the present applicant was found in the commission of crime, therefore, he is not entitled for grant of bail, but he could not dispute the aforesaid factual contention of learned counsel for the applicant 7. Having heard learned counsel for the parties and having perused the material available on record; considering the fact that for the alleged incident dated 28.04.2024 the impugned F.I.R. has been lodged on 18.11.2024 pursuant to the order being passed in the application filed under Section 156 (3) Cr.P.C.; the fact that there was some monetary dispute between the parties and on such dispute the parties entered into compromise at the police station and having ulterior motive and extraneous design an application under Section 156 (3) Cr.P.C. has been filed implicating the present applicant falsely; the present applicant is having no prior criminal history and the undertaking that the applicant shall not misuse the liberty of bail and shall abide by all terms and conditions of the bail order and shall cooperate in the trial proceedings properly, without expressing any opinion on merits of the case, I am of the view that the present applicant may be enlarged on bail. 8. Accordingly, the instant bail application is allowed. 9. Let the applicant (Sumit Rawat) be released on bail in the aforesaid case crime number on his furnishing a personal bond and two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned with the following conditions:- (i) The applicant shall file an undertaking to the effect that he shall not seek any adjournment on the dates fixed for evidence when the witnesses are present in court.
