BA1 No. 356 of 2025 Hon’ble Rakesh Thapliyal, J.
1. Mr. Prashant Khanna, learned counsel for hte applicant.
2. Mr. Siddharth Bisht, learned A.G.A. with Mr. Himanshu Sain, learned Brief Holder for the State.
3. The present applicant ‘Amit Kumar’ is seeking bail in relation to First Information Report dated 28.10.2024 registered at P.S. Rudraprayag District Rudraprayag bearing FIR No. 61 of 2024.
4.
Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated, which is evident from the fact that the FIR has been lodged against unknown persons.
5. Apart from this, he submits that from the allegations alleged in the FIR no cognizable offence is made out against the applicant and only the allegation is with regard to the attempt of changing the mobile number therefore the applicant deserves for bail.
6. Apart from this, learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant have no previous criminal history.
7. On the previous date, the State was directed to get the instructions in the matter and now on the basis of the written instructions it reveals that the applicant was arrested from Jharkhand on 30.12.2024. He further submits that on the basis of CCTV footages and on the basis of the call detail report of the applicant it was found that by making forged signature of the Additional Chief Executive Officer/ Sub Divisional Magistrate and the forged signature of Mining Officer Virendra Kumar Singh a letter was submitted for changing the mobile number in the accounts.
8. It is also mentioned in the written instructions that this attempt was made deliberately since on that day huge amount was in the account of the Mining department.
9. Apart from this, as per the written instructions, it reveals that the applicant was operating various SIM and belongs to West Bengal.
10. After hearing the arguments of learned counsel for the parties and further after taking into
consideration the written instruction, which has been placed by the learned A.G.A. before this court, I do not find any merit in the instant bail application. The same is, accordingly, rejected.
