SL. No Date Office Notes, reports, orders or proceedings or directions and Registrar’s order with Signatures COURT’S OR JUDGES’S 2026:UHC:4176 BA1 No. 499 of 2026 Hon’ble Ashish Naithani, J. Mr. B.S. Koranga, learned counsel for the Applicant. 2. Mr. Pratiroop Pandey, learned A.G.A. for the State of Uttarakhand. 3. The present Bail Application has been moved by the Applicant—Kuber Singh, S/o Shri Satpal Singh, R/o Highdel Colony, Kalagarh, District Pauri Garhwal, who is in judicial custody in connection with FIR No. 76 of 2025, registered at Police Station Banbhoolpura, District Nainital, for offences punishable under Sections 2 and 3 of the Gangsters and Anti-Social Activities (Prevention) Act, 1986. 4. Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the record. 5. Learned counsel for the Applicant, while pressing the bail application, submitted that the Applicant has been falsely implicated in the present case and is in judicial custody since 30.01.2026. It is contended that no offence under Sections 2 and 3 of the U.P. Gangsters and Anti-Social Activities (Prevention) Act is made out against the Applicant, as there are no specific allegations against him. It is further contended that the FIR has been lodged maliciously with an ulterior motive of wreaking vengeance upon the Applicant due to private and personal grudge and that the same is merely an afterthought intended to falsely implicate him. 6. Per contra, learned State Counsel opposed the bail application contending that allegations of extortion have been levelled against the Applicant and that he has criminal history of a similar nature to his credit. 7. After hearing learned counsel for the parties and upon perusal of the material available on record, this Court finds that, considering the overall facts and circumstances of the case, and without expressing any opinion on the merits thereof, the Applicant has been able to make out a fit case for grant of bail. 8. Accordingly, the Bail Application is allowed. 9. Let the Applicant be released on bail upon furnishing a personal bond and two reliable sureties, each in the like amount, to the satisfaction of the court concerned. 10. It is made clear that any observation made hereinabove is only for the purpose of adjudication of the present bail application and shall not be construed as an expression on the merits of the case. 11. All pending applications, if any, shall stand disposed of. (Ashish Naithani, J.) 26.05.2026 Shiksha
