No. Date Office Notes, reports, orders or proceedings or directions and Registrar’s order with Signatures COURT’S OR JUDGE’S ORDERS ABA No.722 of 2025 Hon’ble Rakesh Thapliyal, J. 1. Mr. Gaurav Singh, learned counsel for the applicant. 2. Mr. Tumul Nainwal, learned AGA along with Mr. Chitrarth Kandpal, learned Brief Holder for the State. 3. The present applicant-Riyajul S/o Mustkeem is praying for anticipatory bail in relation to FIR dated 29.08.2021 bearing FIR No.0333 of 2021, Police Station Bahadarabad, District Haridwar, which, in fact, was lodged against three persons, namely, Meherbaan, Riyajul and Shameem for the offences punishable under Sectioins 3/5/11 of the Uttarakhand Protection for Cow Progeny Act, 2007. 4. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the aforesaid FIR was challenged in WPCRL No.2395 of 2022, in which the Coordinate Bench granted interim protection to the applicant with a direction that the investigation may go on but the applicant shall not be arrested provided they cooperate with the investigation. 5. Learned counsel for the applicant also submits that the applicant cooperates with the investigation, however, on completion of the investigation, the charge-sheet has been filed. He also submits that even after filing of the charge-sheet, the applicant has an apprehension of arrest, therefore, the applicant be granted anticipatory bail. 6. He further submits that the applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated only on the basis of the disclosure of his name by the co-accused. 7. On the other side, Mr. Tumul Nainwal, learned AGA vehemently opposed the anticipatory bail application by submitting that after thorough investigation and after collecting all credible evidences, the charge- sheet has been filed. Apart from this, he 2025:UHC:5908 submits that, prima facie, there are evidences against the applicant, therefore, in such an eventuality, when after through investigation and after collecting all credible evidences, the charge-sheet has been filed, the applicant does not deserve for anticipatory bail. 8. After hearing the arguments as advanced by learned counsel for the parties and further taking into consideration the allegations as alleged and the fact that after completion of the investigation and after collecting all credible evidences, the charge- sheet has been filed, this Court is of the view that the applicant does not deserve for anticipatory bail. 9. Accordingly, the instant anticipatory bail application is rejected being devoid of merit. (Rakesh Thapliyal, J.) 09.07.2025 R.Bisht 2025:UHC:5908
