Learned counsel for the applicant has stated that the applicant has been falsely implicated in the present case. He has nothing to do with the said offence. The applicant is not named in the FIR and his name has come up subsequently on the basis of his own confessional statement before the police, which has no evidentiary value in the eyes of law. 5. Learned counsel for the applicant has further stated that since no animal was slaughtered in the present case, no offence is made out under the Uttar Pradesh Prevention of Cow Slaughter Act, 1955. If at all any offence is disclosed, the same would fall only within the ambit of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960. There is no previous criminal history of the applicant except two cases foisted on him subsequently to the instant case. The applicant is languishing in jail since 17.7.2025 and is ready to cooperate with trial. In case, the applicant is released on bail, he will not misuse the liberty of bail.
