He has been falsely implicated in this case. It is further submitted that the recovery as shown by the police against the applicant is not in accordance with the procedure prescribed by the law.

This court prima facie finds that there are no credible evidence on record to link the applicant to the instant offence; the investigation has been completed; charge-sheet has been
submitted; the court concerned has taken cognizance; the recovery shown against the applicant is not in accordance with the procedure prescribed by law; criminal history has been explained; the applicant is languishing in jail since 07.01.2025; there is no possibility of completion of trial in near future and there is no material brought by learned AGA to establish that if the applicant may grant bail he will influence the trial or influence the witnesses; undertaking has been given by the learned counsel for the applicant to abide by the terms and conditions as imposed by the court while granting the bail. 6. Taking into consideration of aforesaid reasons as stated above and without expressing any opinion on merit of the case, I am inclined to grant bail to the applicant. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed. 7. Let the applicant - Rahul Ahirwar, who is involved in the aforementioned case crime be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond of Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty Thousand) and two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned subject to following conditions.

(ii) The applicant shall remain present, in person, before the trial court on dates fixed for (1) opening of the case, (2) framing of charge and (3) recording of statement under Section 313 Cr.P.C./351 BNSS. If in the opinion of the Trial Court absence of the applicant is deliberate of without sufficient cause, then it shall be open for the Trial Court to treat such default as abuse of liberty of bail and proceed against him in accordance with law. 8.
In case of breach of any of the above conditions, it shall be a ground for cancellation of bail. Order Date :- 13.5.2025 CS/- (Chandra Dhari Singh, J.) Digitally signed by :- CHANDAN SINGH High Court of Judicature at Allahabad
