HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT ALLAHABAD LUCKNOW CRIMINAL MISC. BAIL APPLICATION No. - 8802 of 2025 Court No. - 15 HON'BLE KARUNESH SINGH PAWAR, J. Heard learned counsel for the applicant, learned AGA for the State and perused the record. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the maximum sentence prescribed for the alleged offence is three years, whereas the applicant has already undergone incarceration for about five months. It is further contended that the co-accused, namely Shri Man Narayan Shukla, Vimal Kumar Pandey, and Girijesh Shukla @ Susheel Shukla, have already been enlarged on bail, copies of which are collectively filed as Annexure No. 6 to the bail application. 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. Considering the nature of the offence, the period of incarceration already undergone by the applicant, the fact that co-accused have been granted bail, and the applicant is in jail since 05.06.2025, I am of the view that it is a fit case for enlarging the applicant on bail. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed. Versus Counsel for Applicant(s) : Anupam Dwivedi, Ram Pheran Dwivedi Counsel for Opposite Party(s) : G.A. Ajaj Ahmad .....Applicant(s) State Of U.P.
