Heard Ms. Mary Puncha (Sheeb Jose), learned counsel for the applicants, Sri Anil Kumar Singh, learned AGA for the State- respondents and perused the record. This bail application under Section 483 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 has been moved on behalf of accused- applicants, Preeti, Babita Bharti and Shakuntala, seeking enlargement on bail in Case Crime No. 88 of 2025, under Sections 3/5(1) of the Uttar Pradesh Prohibition of Unlawful Conversion of Religion Act, Police Station- Paniyara, District- Maharajganj. Learned counsel for the applicants argued that the accused- applicants are innocent. They has been falsely implicated in this very case crime number and are languishing in jail since 23.03.2025. Learned counsel for the applicants submits that the applicants are not named in the FIR. Nothing incriminating has been recovered from the possession of the applicants. They have 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-applicants, Preeti, Babita Bharti and Shakuntala, involved in above mentioned case crime number be released on bail, on their 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 applicants will not tamper with the evidence. 2. The applicants will not indulge in any criminal activity. 3.
