Neutral Citation No. - 2025:AHC:39263 Court No. - 68 Case :- CRIMINAL MISC. BAIL APPLICATION No. - 9208 of 2025 Applicant :- Sumit Kumar Opposite Party :- State of U.P. Counsel for Applicant :- Mohd Faiz Counsel for Opposite Party :- G.A. Hon'ble Ashutosh Srivastava,J. Heard Shri Mohd Faiz, learned counsel for the applicant, Sri S.K. Ojha, learned AGA-I for the State-respondents and perused the record. This bail application under Section 439 Cr.P.C. has been moved on behalf of accused-applicant, Sumit Kumar, seeking enlargement on bail in Case Crime No. 96 of 2024, under Sections 147, 148, 323, 325, 307, 504 and 506 of the Indian Penal Code, Police Station- Chandaush, District- Aligarh. Learned counsel for the applicant argued that the accused- applicant is innocent. He has been falsely implicated in this very case crime number and is languishing in jail since 24.09.2024. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that no specific role has been assigned to the applicant. He next submits that chargesheet has already been submitted by the Investigating Officer on 07.12.2024 and cognizance has been taken on 19.12.2024 and no useful purpose would be served by detaining the applicant. He has no criminal antecedent and there is no likelihood of his fleeing from course of justice or tampering with evidence in case of release on bail. Hence, bail has been prayed for. Learned AGA has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail. Considering all above facts and circumstances, the nature of accusations, severity of the punishment in the case of conviction and nature of supporting evidence, reasonable apprehension of tampering with the witness and prima facie case, but without commenting on merit of case, a case for bail is made out. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed. Let the accused-applicant, Sumit Kumar, involved in above mentioned case crime number be released on bail, on his executing a personal bond and two reliable sureties each, in the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned, subject to the following conditions: 1. The applicant will not tamper with the evidence. 2. The applicant will not indulge in any criminal activity. 3. The applicant will not pressurize/intimidate the prosecution witnesses and co-operate in the trial. 4. The applicant will appear regularly on each and every date fixed by the trial court, unless his personal appearance is exempted through counsel by the court concerned. In the event of breach of any of the aforesaid conditions, the court below will be at liberty to proceed to cancel his bail.
