HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT ALLAHABAD LUCKNOW CRIMINAL MISC. BAIL APPLICATION No. - 6487 of 2025 Court No. - 12 HON'BLE PANKAJ BHATIA, J.
1. Counter affidavit filed today is taken on record. 2. Heard learned counsel for the applicant, learned AGA for the State, Shri Ayush Pratap Singh, learned counsel for the informant and perused the record. 3. The applicant seeks enlargement on bail in FIR No.91 of 2025, under sections 61(2), 103(1), 351(2), BNS, P.S. Indira Nagar, District Lucknow. 4. Learned counsel for the applicant argues that in terms of FIR it was alleged that son of informant was taken by the applicant and subsequently intoxication was given and then he was killed. When the informant reached the spot he found that head of his son was bleeding and there was injury marks on his chest also. Subsequently an information was received that son of the informant was administered alcohol and subsequently he was killed with a tractor by the applicant and his brother in law who according to the informant was a sand mafia. In the light of the said allegations learned counsel for the applicant draws my attention to the site plan which states that the incident had taken place in almost on the middle of the road which is a kachha road. My attention is also drawn to the statement of one of the eye witness Shubham who stated that on the date of incident in between 7:30 to 8 PM when he was going for agricultural Versus Counsel for Applicant(s) : Vinay Mishra, Dinesh Kumar Dixit, Laxmi Shanker Goswami, Pratul Pratap Singh Counsel for Opposite Party(s) : G.A., Ayush Pratap Singh, Dhirendra Pratap Singh Raj Jaiswal .....Applicant(s) State Of U.P.

work he see saw a tractor standing alongwith mud loaded on the trolley and the applicant and his brother in law were fighting the deceased. Subsequently brother in law sat on the tractor and applicant pushed the deceased towards the tractor which resulted in his death. Learned counsel for the applicant states that in the CCTV footage as has been filed alongwith supplementary affidavit it is clear that at around 7:30 the applicant had gone to drop child to school. It is evident from CCTV footage and thus the allegations are highly improbable.
He also draws my attention to the statement of one of person Sumit who had stated that it was the applicant who had informed that the deceased had died on account of tractor accident. Cause of death as per post mortem report suggest the death on account of injuries caused by accident. Apart from the statement of the eye witness it is stated that the applicant had forced the deceased towards tractor which was being driven by the brother in law. The CCTV footage filed by the applicant does not indicate any such incident involving the applicant or his brother in law. In the post mortem report no alcohol was found from the deceased. 5. Learned AGA has opposed the bail application. 6. Considering the FIR allegations not being corroborated by the applicant who has explained his criminal antecedents in paragraph 11 of the bail application and the other criminal history disclosed in the counter affidavit filed by the State are not related offence, however, without commenting upon the merits of the case, the applicant who is in jail since 23.5.2025 is entitled to be enlarged on bail. In view thereof, the application is allowed. 7. Let the applicant Raj Jaiswal be released on bail in aforesaid FIR number on his furnishing a personal bond with two sureties of Rs.20,000/- each to the satisfaction of court concerned with the following conditions: (a) The applicant shall execute a bond to undertake to attend the hearings; (b) The applicant shall not commit any offence similar to the offence of which he is accused or suspected of the commission; and (c) The applicant shall not directly or indirectly make any inducement, BAIL No. 6487 of 2025 2
threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as to dissuade him from disclosing such facts to the Court or to any police officer or tamper with the evidence. 8. However, the trial shall be concluded expeditiously.
