The present applicant is in jail since 21.04.2025, in case crime no. 97 of 2025, under Sections 105 of BNS and Section 30 of Arms Act at Police Station Laharpur District Sitapur.
Learned counsel for the applicant has stated that the present applicant has been falsely implicated as he has not committed any offence as alleged. Attention has been drawn towards the impugned First Information Report, wherein, the specific allegation has been levelled against two named accused persons and two unknown persons. As per prosecution story, on account of irresponsible and careless use of gun by the accused applicant, it fired, resultant thereof, the maternal grandmother of the informant sustained gunshot injury and she succumbed to such injury.
Learned counsel has stated that though some witnesses have named the present applicant, but the present applicant is having no gun in his name. Learned counsel has mainly pressed this bail application on the ground that the present applicant is the student of B.A. IInd Year and he is willing to pursue his studies. There is no previous criminal history of the applicant of any kind whatsoever. When he is released from jail, he may be able to pursue his studies. The learned counsel has further submitted that if the applicant is released on bail, he shall shall cooperate in the trial proceedings and shall not misuse the liberty of bail. Further, the applicant shall abide by all terms and conditions of the bail order, the applicant may be enlarged on bail.
Learned AGA for the State has also opposed the bail application but could not dispute the submission of the learned counsel for the applicant. Without entering into merits of the issue, considering the
arguments of learned counsel for the parties; contents and allegations of the FIR and the fact that the present applicant is languishing in jail since 21.04.2025; the applicant is a student of B.A. IInd Year; there is no likelihood to conclude the trial in the near future; and undertaking of the applicant that he shall cooperate in the trial proceedings and shall not misuse the liberty of bail, I find it appropriate to release the applicant on bail. The bail application is allowed. Let the applicant- Anand Yadav @ Annu, 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. In case of default of this condition, it shall be open for the trial court to treat it as abuse of liberty of bail and pass orders in accordance with law. (ii) The applicant shall remain present before the trial court on each date fixed, either personally or through his counsel. In case of his absence, without sufficient cause, the trial court may proceed against him under Section 229-A of the Indian Penal Code. (iii) In case, the applicant misuses the liberty of bail during trial and in order to secure his presence proclamation under Section 82 Cr.P.C. is issued and the applicants fail to appear before the court on the date fixed in such proclamation, then, the trial court shall initiate proceedings against him, in accordance with law, under Section 174-A of the Indian Penal Code. (iv) The applicant shall remain present, in person, before the trial court on the dates fixed for (i) opening of the case, (ii) framing of charge and (iii) recording of statement under Section 313 Cr.P.C.

concluded with expedition, strictly in accordance with law, without adjourning the case for any unnecessary reason.
