He has been falsely implicated in this case as he has not committed any offence as alleged in the prosecution story. 5. Attention has been drawn towards the impugned FIR wherein the allegation of assault and beating has been attributed to four accused persons including the present applicant. No specific allegation and weapon have been assigned to the present applicant as general allegations have been levelled against the applicant. 6. Further attention has been drawn towards the Annexure-9 which is an order dated 01.07.2025 whereby co-accused Shiv Prakash has been granted bail by this Court in Cri. Misc. Bail Application No.6093 of 2025, therefore, the present applicant may also be enlarged on bail on the basis of principles of pairity. 7. Learned counsel for the applicant has further submitted that the present applicant is having only one criminal history which has been explained in supplementary affidavit. Chargesheet has
been filed. 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, shall abide by all terms and conditions of the bail order and he shall cooperate in the trial proceedings properly. 8. Learned Additional Government Advocate has opposed the aforesaid bail application by submitting that the present applicant was present on the spot and has also beaten the deceased, however he could not dispute this fact that co- accused Shiv Prakash has been enlarged on bail. 9.
Having heard learned counsel for the parties and having perused the material available on record; considering the fact that no specific allegation and weapon have been assigned to the present applicant, only general allegation has been levelled against the applicant; co-accused Shiv Prakash has been granted bail by this Court on 01.07.2025 in Cri. Misc. Bail Application No.6093 of 2025 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 he 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. 10.
