Mr. Parikshit Saini and Mr. Karan Singh Dugtal, learned counsels for the applicant. 2. Mr. Pradeep Lohani, learned Brief Holder for the State. 3. The applicant – Ujjawal Singh Rana, who is in judicial custody in connection with FIR/Case Crime No. 18 of 2025, under Sections 109, 115(2), 85 of BNS, registered at P.S.- Dineshpur, District Udham Singh Nagar, has sought his release on bail. 4. In this case, an FIR was lodged by the sister of the victim, wherein, it was alleged that the applicant had poured petrol on the victim and put her on FIR. The statements of the victim were recorded under Section 161 Cr.P.C. in which she has supported the prosecution story. But, thereafter, in her statement recorded under Section 164 Cr.P.C., the victim has submitted that there when she went outside her house, then three strangers riding a motorcycle threw a cup containing petrol and lit it and her body got fire by the said incident. She denied the role of the applicant in the whole incident. The other eye-witness to the incident is the minor son who was examined as PW-5. In his statement, he has supported the version as stated by the victim in her statement under Section 164 Cr.P.C. 5. Learned counsel for the applicant would submit that there is no eye-witness and the son who is the eye-witness to the incident has denied the role of the applicant in the whole incident at this stage; that since, the statement of the victim and son have already been recorded, there is no chance of tampering with the evidences or influencing the witnesses. It is further submitted that the applicant is in judicial custody since 29.01.2025. Learned counsel further assures this Court that, if released on bail, the applicant shall not misuse the liberty granted, will fully cooperate in the trial, and will furnish bail bonds and sureties to the satisfaction of this Court. 6. Learned counsel for the State, on the other hand, has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail. 7. In light of the foregoing and also considering the fact that the victim and her son both have denied the role of the applicant in the whole incident, this Court is inclined to enlarge the applicant on bail at this stage. 8. The bail application is allowed. 9. Let the applicant be released on bail, on his executing personal bond and furnishing two reliable sureties, each of like amount, to the satisfaction of Court concerned.
