HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT ALLAHABAD LUCKNOW CRIMINAL MISC. ANTICIPATORY BAIL APPLICATION U/S 482 BNSS No. - 1587 of 2025 Court No. - 15 HON'BLE KARUNESH SINGH PAWAR, J. The present anticipatory bail application has been filed seeking anticipatory bail in case crime No. 299/2025, under Sections 8/15/29/60(3) NDPS Act, P.S. Jaidpur, District Barabanki. Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned A.G.A. for the State. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant has been falsely implicated in the present case solely on the basis of the confessional statement of a co-accused. Learned A.G.A., on the other hand, has opposed the anticipatory bail application, contending that the applicant has a chequered criminal history, which includes two cases under the NDPS Act. A perusal of the impugned rejection order indicates that while dismissing the bail application, the learned court below has recorded that the applicant has a criminal history of six cases. The relevant portion of the said order is reproduced below: "थाना जैदपुर से आवेदक/अिभयु्व के आपरािधक इितहास के सम्बन्ध में आख्या ्ऺाप्त हुई है, िजसके अनुसार आवेदक/अिभयु्व के िवरू्ध िनम्निलिखत आपरिधक वाद दजर् है- 1-मु०अ०सं० 94/2021, धारा 376 डी,506,342,34 भा०द० सं० व धारा 3 (2) (V) एस०सी०एस०टी० एक्ट व 5जी /6 पाक्सो Versus Counsel for Applicant(s) : Rajesh Kumar, Suhail Kashif Counsel for Opposite Party(s) : G.A.

Act and the POCSO Act, as well as cases under the Gangsters Act and two cases under the NDPS Act, this Court finds that in light of such antecedents, it would not be appropriate to exercise the extraordinary jurisdiction of granting anticipatory bail. Accordingly, the application for anticipatory bail stands dismissed. At this stage, learned counsel for the applicant prays that liberty may be granted to the applicant to file a regular bail application, which may be decided expeditiously. In view of the said prayer, it is directed that in case the applicant files a regular bail application within two weeks from today, the same shall be considered and decided expeditiously in accordance with law.
