After conduction of investigation, charge-sheet has been submitted whereupon cognizance has been taken up vide impugned order dated 11.04.2025. 4. It is contended by learned counsel for applicants that applicants are innocent and have been falsely implicated in the present case. There is major contradiction in the statement of informant and version of FIR. As per the allegation of FIR and statement of witnesses, there is no specific role assigned to the applicants rather than general one based on suspicion. No incriminating material has been recovered against the applicants. Applicants have already been granted bail. 5. Per contra, learned AGA vehemently opposed the prayer sought through instant application. 6. After hearing the rival submissions extended by learned counsels for the parties and perusing the records, this Court finds that applicants have already been granted bail by court concerned and at this stage entire arguments which has been substantiated with certain statements made by certain witnesses has been put for challenging the entire proceeding which cannot be accepted at this stage since the entire arguments whatsoever has been raised by learned counsel for the applicants is subject matter of trial. 7. In view of aforesaid discussion, instant application lacks merit, hence dismissed. Order Date :- 1.7.2025 Shaswat Digitally signed by :- SHASWAT SINGH High Court of Judicature at Allahabad
