Home Lko. Counsel for Applicant :- Manoj Kumar Singh Counsel for Opposite Party :- G.A.,Manish Kumar Tripathi Hon'ble Karunesh Singh Pawar,J. Heard learned counsel for the applicant, learned AGA for the State, learned counsel for the complainant and perused the record. In the prosecution case, it is alleged that the applicant in connivance with the co-accused persons on the pretext of sale of land and by showing forged documents to the complainant have taken Rs. 20 lakhs in their account and Rs. 23 lakhs in cash. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant is not named in the FIR. No amount has been received by her in her bank account. The alleged offences are triable by a Magistrate. It is next submitted that the co-accused persons namely, Kaptan Yadav @ Mahesh Yadav, Amit Kashyap and Ashok Kumar Chauhan have already been granted bail by this Court as well as by the coordinate benches of this Court vide orders dated 1.7.2025, 29.5.2025 and 27.6.2025 passed in Criminal Misc. Bail Application Nos. 6137 of 2025, 4810 of 2025 and 5776 of 2025 respectively. It is further submitted that the applicant is a lady. She has no criminal history and she is languishing in jail since 5.4.2025. 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. as well as learned counsel for the complainant have opposed the prayer for bail and submitted that it is a gang of the applicant with the co-accused who have defrauded the other persons in the vicinity. Thus, it is a serious offence. On due consideration to the submissions advanced, perusal of the record, the bail orders of the aforesaid co-accused persons so also the fact that the applicant is a lady; she has no criminal antecedents and she is languishing in jail since 5.4.2025; the alleged offences are triable by a Magistrate 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. Let the applicant- Shanti Devi involved in Case Crime No.61 of 2025, under Sections 318(4), 319(2), 336(3), 338, 340(2) BNS, P.S.
