Neutral Citation No. - 2025:AHC:31597 Court No. - 67 Case :- CRIMINAL MISC. BAIL APPLICATION No. - 7723 of 2025 Applicant :- Ikrar Ahmand Opposite Party :- State of U.P. Counsel for Applicant :- Punya Sheel Pandey Counsel for Opposite Party :- G.A. Hon'ble Vivek Varma,J. 1. Heard learned counsel for the applicant, Sri V.P.Tripathi, learned AGA for the State-respondent and perused the record. 2. The instant bail application under Section 483 BNSS has been filed with a prayer to enlarge the applicant on bail in Case Crime No. 262 of 2022, under Sections 420, 467, 468, 471, 506 IPC, Police Station Aliganj, District Etah, during the pendency of trial. 3. Counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant has been falsely implicated in the instant case. The applicant is the bonafide purchaser of the disputed land. The sale consideration as well as stamp duty were duly paid by the applicant. The applicant has not forged or manipulated any document. The applicant himself was the victim of the fraud. The applicant is in jail since 25.01.2025 having no criminal history and in case he is enlarged on bail, he will not misuse the said liberty. 4. Learned AGA has opposed the prayer for bail but could not satisfactorily dispute the aforesaid submissions from the record. 5. Having heard counsel for the parties and having perused the record, this Court prima facie finds that the applicant is the bonafide purchaser of the disputed land. As per the sale-deed, the sale consideration was duly paid. The applicant has no criminal antecedents. The applicant has remained confined for more than one month and there is no hope of early conclusion of trial, more so when no reasonable apprehension has been brought to the fore by the State that the applicant, if enlarged on bail, would either tamper with the evidence or delay the trial or intimidate the witness, without commenting on the merits of the case, I am of the opinion that the applicant is entitled to be enlarged on bail. 6. Let the applicant Ikrar Ahmad, involved in the aforesaid case 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 subject to the conditions that he: (i) shall appear on the date fixed by the trial court; (ii) shall not tamper with the prosecution evidence; (iii) shall not pressurize the prosecution witnesses. 7. In case of breach of any of the above conditions, the prosecution shall be at liberty to move bail cancellation application before this Court.
