HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT ALLAHABAD LUCKNOW CRIMINAL MISC. BAIL APPLICATION No. - 1582 of 2024 Court No. - 12 HON'BLE KARUNESH SINGH PAWAR, J. Heard learned counsel for the applicant, learned AGA for the State and perused the record. In the prosecution case, it is alleged that on 12.7.2023 at about 05.00 pm, the informant's brother Javed Mirja (applicant) got the property which was in the name of the informant's mother Waheeda Beguam, bequeathed in his name. When the informant and his wife resisted, the accused became adamant to fight and while hurling abuses shot his wife, due to that his wife died on the spot. As per the post-mortem report, the cause of death is shock and haemorrhage as a result of ante-mortem firearm injuries. The deceased suffered three ante-mortem injuries, out of which the injury No. 1 is a firearm wound of entry. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant has been falsely implicated in the case. Except the complainant, there is no other eye-witness in this case. He submits that the complainant while being examined before the trial court as PW-1 has not supported the prosecution case and has been declared hostile. All the fact witnesses have been examined before the trial court. Thus, there is no chance of tampering the prosecution evidence.

Thru Secy. Home Lucknow .....Opposite Party(s) It is further submitted that the applicant has explained the criminal history of 3 cases in para no. 3 of the supplementary rejoinder affidavit. He is languishing in jail since 3.8.2023. There is no possibility of the applicant of fleeing away after being released from jail or tampering with the witnesses. In case the applicant is enlarged on bail, he shall not misuse the liberty of bail. Learned A.G.A. has opposed the prayer for bail but could not dispute the aforesaid facts as argued by the learned counsel for the applicant. On due consideration to the submissions advanced, perusal of the record, the post-mortem report so also the fact that except the complainant, there is no eye-witness in this case; the complainant while being examined before the trial court as PW-1 has been declared hostile; all the fact witnesses have been examined before the trial court; there appears to be no chance of tampering the prosecution evidence coupled with the fact that the applicant has duly explained the criminal history; he is languishing in jail since 3.8.2023; till date, out of 24, only five prosecution witnesses have been examined; the trial is not likely to be concluded in the near future as well as in view of the judgement of the Apex Court in re: Javed Gulam Nabi Shaikh vs. State of Maharashtra, 2024 SCC OnLine SC 1693 and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I find it to be a fit case for enlarging the applicant on bail. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed.
