Neutral Citation No. - 2025:AHC:115731 Court No. - 65 Case :- CRIMINAL MISC. BAIL APPLICATION No. - 23701 of 2025 Applicant :- Vishram Opposite Party :- State of U.P. Counsel for Applicant :- Vijay Prakash Chaturvedi Counsel for Opposite Party :- G.A. Hon'ble Krishan Pahal,J. 1. List has been revised. 2. Heard Sri Vijay Prakash Chaturvedi, 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. 230 of 2024, under Sections 80(2), 85 of BNS and Section 3/4 of D.P. Act, Police Station Uska Bazar, District Siddharth Nagar, 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 as alleged in the FIR. The FIR is delayed by about two days and there is no explanation of the said delay caused. 5. Learned counsel has further stated that the allegations are per se false. It is a clear cut case of false implication. The inquest report was prepared on the date of occurrence i.e. on 08.12.2024 and the husband of the informant was present at that time. 6. It is further stated that the FIR has been instituted after legal consultation. The cause of death has been found to be asphyxia as a result of ante mortem hanging. The deceased had committed suicide out of depression as it was the second marriage of the applicant and he had four children from his earlier marriage. 7. There is no criminal history of the applicant. The applicant is languishing in jail since 17.12.2024 and he is ready to cooperate with trial. In case, the applicant is released on bail, he will not misuse the liberty of bail. 8. 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. 9. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, submissions made by learned counsel for the parties and taking into consideration the delay in institution of the FIR coupled by the fact that husband of the informant was present at the time of inquest proceedings, I find it a fit case to release the applicant on bail. The bail application is allowed. 10. Let the applicant- Vishram, 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. 11. In case of breach of any of the above conditions, it shall be a ground for cancellation of bail. 12. 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.
