HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT ALLAHABAD LUCKNOW CRIMINAL MISC. BAIL APPLICATION No. - 9166 of 2025 Court No. - 12 HON'BLE PANKAJ BHATIA, J. 1. Heard learned counsel for the applicant as well as learned A.G.A. and perused the record. 2. The applicant seeks enlargement on bail in FIR No.298 of 2024, under Section 103(1) of BNS, Police Station Kotwali Dehat, District Sitapur. 3. In terms of the FIR, it was alleged that the son of the informant had gone along with his friends and subsequently, all the four accused had killed him by the use of Banka and blade. 4. The Counsel for the applicant argues that apart from the apprehension expressed in the FIR, there is no material exists to implicate the applicant. The recovery memo shows the recovery from all the four accused together and the said recovery is not in the presence of the independent witness. 5. Learned A.G.A. vehemently opposed the bail prayer. 6. Considering the recovery, which is prima facie, not in accordance with law; the name of the application surfaced based upon a confessional statement and the fact that the applicant has no criminal antecedents and is languishing in jail since 01.11.2024, I am of the view that the applicant is entitled to be released on bail. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed. Versus Counsel for Applicant(s) : Sushil Pandey, Akhil Anand Counsel for Opposite Party(s) : G.A. Karan .....Applicant(s) State Of U.P. Thru. Prin. Secy.
