Counsel for Applicant :- Amit Kumar Rajput,Anis Kumar Gautam,Arvind Kumar Mishra,Pramod Kumar Maurya Counsel for Opposite Party :- G.A. Hon'ble Krishan Pahal,J. 1. List has been revised. Supplementary affidavit filed by learned counsel for the applicant today is taken on record. 2. Heard Sri Amit Kumar Rajpoot, learned counsel for the applicant and Sri Sunil Kumar, learned A.G.A. for the State and perused the record. 3. Applicant seeks bail in Case Crime No. 538 of 2023, under Sections 328, 376, 506 IPC and Section 66E, 67(A) of I.T. Act, Police Station Jhangaha, District Gorakhpur, during the pendency of trial. 4. Learned counsel for the applicant has argued that the applicant is absolutely innocent and has been falsely implicated in the present case. He has nothing to do with the said offence. It is next stated that the victim has been examined as PW-1 during trial and she has completely resiled from her earlier statement and has been cross-examined by the public prosecutor after declaring her hostile. There is no likelihood of conviction of the applicant in the present case. 5. There is no criminal history of the applicant. The applicant is languishing in jail since 05.11.2023 and he is ready to cooperate with trial. In case, the applicant is released on bail, he will not misuse the liberty of bail. 6. Per contra, learned AGA has vehemently opposed the bail application but unable to dispute the submissions raised by the learned counsel for the applicant and also the fact that the applicant has no criminal history. 7. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, submissions made by learned counsel for the parties and taking into consideration the fact that the victim as PW-1 has not supported the prosecution story, I find it a fit case to release the applicant on bail. The bail application is allowed. 8. Let the applicant- Vishal Sharma, who is involved in aforementioned 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 subject to following conditions. Further, before issuing the release order, the sureties be verified. i) The applicant shall not tamper with the evidence during trial. ii) The applicant shall not pressurise/intimidate with the prosecution witnesses. iii) The applicant shall appear before the trial court on the date fixed. 9. In case of breach of any of the above conditions, it shall be a ground for cancellation of bail. 10. It is made clear that observations made in granting bail to the applicant shall not in any way affect the learned trial Judge in forming his independent opinion based on the testimony of the witnesses.
