Neutral Citation No. - 2025:AHC:93745 Court No. - 68 Case :- CRIMINAL MISC. BAIL APPLICATION No. - 17493 of 2025 Applicant :- Chhotu Yadav Alias Dharmendra Yadav Opposite Party :- State of U.P. Counsel for Applicant :- Rajesh Singh Baish Counsel for Opposite Party :- G.A. Hon'ble Ashutosh Srivastava,J. Heard Shri Rajesh Singh Baish, learned counsel for the applicant, Sri Manoj 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- applicant, Chhotu Yadav Alias Dharmendra Yadav, seeking enlargement on bail in Case Crime No. 306 of 2024, under Sections 221, 109(1), 324(3) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 and Section 3/5A/8 Cow Slaughter Act and Section 11 of Prevention of Animal Cruelty Act, Police Station- Lalganj, District- Mirzapur.
Learned counsel for the applicant submits that there is no independent witness of the recovery. The applicant was not arrested from spot. Offence is triable by magistrate. The applicant is languishing in jail since 05.01.2025 and he has criminal antecedent of three cases. He next submits that chargesheet has already been submitted in the matter by the Investigating Officer and no useful purpose would be served by detaining the applicant. It is further submitted that there is no possibility of the applicant of fleeing away after being released from jail or tampering with the witnesses. In case the applicant is enlarged on bail, he shall not misuse the liberty of bail. Learned A.G.A. opposed the prayer for bail but could not dispute the aforesaid facts as argued by the learned counsel for the applicant. On due consideration to the fact that there is no independent witnesses of the alleged recovery, coupled with the fact that the
applicant is languishing in jail since 05.01.2025 and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I find it to be a fit case for enlarging the applicants on bail. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed. Let the applicant- Chhotu Yadav Alias Dharmendra Yadav involved in the aforesaid case crime be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond and two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned with the following conditions which are being imposed in the interest of justice:- (i) The applicant will not tamper with the evidence during the trial. (ii) The applicant will not pressurize/ intimidate the prosecution witness. (iii) The applicant shall not directly or indirectly make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the
facts of the case so as to dissuade him from disclosing such facts to the Court or to any police officer or tamper with the evidence. (iv) The applicant shall file an undertaking to the effect that he shall not seek any adjournment on the dates fixed for evidence when the witnesses are present in court. In case of default of this condition, it shall be open for the trial court to treat it as abuse of liberty of bail and pass orders in accordance with law. (v) The applicant shall remain present before the trial court on each date fixed, either personally or through his counsel. In case of his absence, without sufficient cause, the trial court may proceed against him. (vi) In case, the applicant misuses the liberty of bail during trial, the trial court shall initiate proceedings against him, in accordance with law.
