Counsel for Applicant :- A.C.Srivastava,Subham Singh Counsel for Opposite Party :- Dhiraj Srivastava,G.A. Hon'ble Dr. Gautam Chowdhary,J. 1. Heard learned counsel for the applicant, learned A.G.A for the State and perused the record. 2. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant had solemnised marriage with the sister of the informant in the year 2018 and due to matrimonial discord, proceedings under Section 498-A I.P.C. along with allied Sections were initiated. He further submits that only to exert pressure upon the applicant, the informant has launched the instant prosecution. Learned counsel further argued that the medical report of the alleged injured is not in consonance with the allegation of attempt to murder. He further submits that general role has been assigned to all the named accused persons including the applicant. He further submits specific role of assault has been assigned to the co-accused Azam, who was not named in the F.I.R. but his name surfaced in the Majeed Bayan of the informant and therefore the applicant is entitled for bail. Several other submissions in order to demonstrate the falsity of the allegations made against the applicant have also been placed before the Court. The circumstances which, according to the counsel, led to the false implication of the accused have also been mentioned. It has also been assured on behalf of the applicant that he is ready to cooperate with the process of law and shall faithfully make himself available before the court whenever required and is also ready to accept all the conditions which the Court may deem fit to impose upon him. He next submits that applicant is languishing in jail since 03.06.2025. 3. Per contra, learned A.G.A. has opposed the prayer for bail of the applicant by contending that the innocence of the applicant cannot be adjudged at pre trial stage, therefore, he does not deserve any indulgence. 4. After perusing the record in the light of the submissions made at the bar and after taking an overall view of all the facts and circumstances of this case, the nature of evidence and also the absence of any convincing material to indicate the possibility of tampering with the evidence, without expressing any opinion on merits of the case, this Court is of the view, that the applicant may be enlarged on bail. 5. Let applicant Sajid involved in Case Crime No. 353 of 2025 under Sections 191(2), 191(3), 190, 333, 109(1), 115(2), 352, 324 (4), 351(3) of B.N.S., Police Station Lisarigate, District Meerut, be released on bail on furnishing a personal bond and two local sureties each of the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned subject to the following conditions:- i) The applicant shall not tamper with the prosecution evidence. ii) The applicant shall not threaten or harass the prosecution witnesses. iii) The applicant shall appear on the date fixed by the trial court. iv) The applicant shall not commit an offence similar to the offence of which the applicant is accused, or suspected of the commission. v) 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 such person from disclosing facts to the Court or to any police officer or tamper with the evidence. 6.
