Learned counsel for the applicants submits that the applicants are innocent and they have been falsely implicated in the present case with false and frivolous allegations. The applicants have not committed alleged offence. On the other hand, learned AGA has submitted that prima facie, the offence is made out against the applicants. It is further submitted that these are disputed questions of fact, which can be adjudicated only after adducing the evidence. He further controverts the submissions of learned counsel for the applicants on the ground that this is not a stage where minute and meticulous exercise with regard to the appreciation of evidence may be done and truthfulness of the allegations could only be tested in a criminal trial and, therefore, the application is misconceived and liable to be dismissed. At this stage, learned counsel for the applicants submits that they do not want to press the application and seek liberty to file bail application before the learned trial court which may be decided in view of law laid by Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Satender Kumar Antil Vs. Central Bureau of Investigation and another, (2022) 10 SCC 51. Learned A.G.A. has no objection to the prayer made by learned counsel for the applicants. On due consideration to the submissions of learned counsel for the parties, it is provided that in case, the applicants appear before the trial court within two weeks from today and file bail application, the same shall be decided expeditiously in view of law laid down in the case of Satender Kumar Antil (supra). The application is disposed off accordingly. Order Date :- 15.5.2025 Mohd. Sharif Digitally signed by :- MOHAMMAD SHARIF High Court of Judicature at Allahabad, Lucknow Bench
