1. Heard learned counsel for the applicant as well as learned AGA for the State. Whereas, no one has put in appearance on behalf of the informant. 2. The accused-applicant seeks bail in FIR/Case Crime No.0656 of 2025 under Sections 69, 316(2), 318(2), 61(2) BNS and 3/5(1) of Prevention of Unlawful Conversion of Religion Act, P.S.- Kotwali Nagar, District- Barabanki. 3. In terms of the FIR, it was alleged that the victim used to talk to the applicant on telephone and on the false pretext of marriage, physical relations were formed. It was also stated that certain money and ornaments were also extracted from the victim by the applicant impersonating himself as a Hindu whereas, subsequently, it was revealed that he was a Muslim. Similar statement was given under Section 183 BNSS. However, in the hotel records, name of the applicant was duly disclosed. The tentative age of the victim is around 19 years. 4. Learned AGA has opposed the bail application. Versus Counsel for Applicant(s) : Ghufran Hussain Counsel for Opposite Party(s) : G.A. Zeeshan Waris @ Ansari .....Applicant(s) State Of U.P. Thru. Prin. Secy. Home Lko. .....Opposite Party(s)
5. Considering the fact that the relations were formed and the hotel records do not corroborate with the allegation coupled with the fact that the applicant is in custody since 11.07.2025 and has no previous criminal antecedent, I am of the view that the applicant is entitled to be enlarged on bail. In view thereof, the application is allowed. 6. Let the applicant- Zeeshan Waris @ Ansari be released on bail in aforesaid FIR/Case Crime Number subject to his furnishing a personal bond and two reliable sureties of Rs.20,000/- (Twenty Thousand) each of the like amount 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, 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.
