HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT ALLAHABAD LUCKNOW CRIMINAL MISC. BAIL APPLICATION No. - 9598 of 2025 Court No. - 15 HON'BLE KARUNESH SINGH PAWAR, J. Heard Ms. Vedika Dwivedi, learned counsel for the applicant as well as learned AGA for the State. In the prosecution case, it is alleged that the applicant, along with the co- accused persons, forged the photograph and name of Superintendent of Police, Raibareli, Dr. Yashveer Singh, which was then used to create a fake Facebook ID. Submission of learned counsel for the applicant is that the role of the applicant is distinct from that of the other co-accused persons. It is contended that no recovery has been made from the applicant that can connect him with the alleged offence. The only recovery is one Vivo smart mobile, which is not linked to the crime in question, and there is no other recovery from the applicant. Apart from the confessional statement of the applicant, no other material is available with the prosecution. It is further submitted that the applicant has no prior criminal antecedents and the charge sheet in the matter has already been filed. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the co-accused Sahil Khan who was assigned the similar role has been enlarged on bail by this Court vide order dated 16.10.2025 passed in criminal misc. bail application No. 10142 of 2025. Learned counsel for the applicant seeks parity with the order of the co-accused. Versus Counsel for Applicant(s) : Himanshu Tiwari, Vedika Dwivedi Counsel for Opposite Party(s) : G.A. Lalit .....Applicant(s) State Of U.P. Thru. Prin. Secy. / Addl. Chief Secy. Home Lko .....Opposite Party(s) It is further submitted that 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. opposed the prayer for bail but could not dispute the aforesaid facts as argued by the learned counsel for the applicant. On due consideration to the bail order of co-accused Sahil Khan, recovery made from the applicant, the fact that the offences are triable by a magistrate, the absence of any criminal antecedents, the filing of the charge sheet, and the applicant is languishing in jail since 19.07.2025, I find this to be a fit case for granting bail to the applicant on the ground of parity. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed on the ground of parity. Let the applicant Lalit involved in case crime No. 006/2025, Under Sections 318(4), 319(2), 338, 336(4), 340 (2), 356, of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, and Section 66-C, 66-D of the Information Technology Act, 2000, Police Station: Cyber Crime Police Thana Raebareli, District: Raebareli, be released on bail 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 which are being imposed in the interest of justice:- (i) The applicant will not tamper with the evidence during the trial.
