The present bail application has been filed by the applicant seeking bail in Case Crime No. 13/2014, under Sections 147/148/336/436/504/506/323/332/353/427 IPC ad section 7 of the Criminal Amendment Act and sections 3/4 of Prevention of Public Property to Damage Act, Police Station- Sirsaganj, District - Firozabad. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in the present crime. He further submits that the applicant was not named in the FIR; no specific role has been assigned for commission of the alleged crime; nothing incriminating article has been recovered from the possession of the applicant or his pointing out; there was no independent or public witness to the alleged incident or recovery; no motive has been assigned to the applicant; the criminal history of the applicant has been explained in the affidavit filed in support of the application; the applicant does not have previous criminal history. It is stated that after taking note of entire facts and circumstances of the case, some of the co- accused, namely, Ravi @ Ravindra, had already been enlarged on bail by this Court vide orders dated 24.01.2025 passed in Criminal Misc. Bail Application No. 2624/2025. Accordingly, the applicant is also entitled for bail. It is also submitted that there is no apprehension that after being released on bail, the applicant may flee from the course of law or may, otherwise, misuse the liberty of bail and the applicant is in jail since 24.3.2025 and the possibility of conclusion of trial in near future is very bleak. Learned A.G.A. has, however, opposed the prayer for grant of bail, but he has not disputed the above contention made by the learned counsel for the accused- applicant that co-accused had already been released on bail. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, perusing the record and also considering the nature of allegations, arguments advanced by the learned counsel for the parties and keeping in mind that co-accused had already been released on bail by this Court and without expressing any opinion on the merit of the case, I find it to be a fit case for granting bail. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed.
