HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT ALLAHABAD CRIMINAL MISC. ANTICIPATORY BAIL APPLICATION U/S 482 BNSS No. - 8691 of 2026 Court No. - 71 HON'BLE RAJIV LOCHAN SHUKLA, J. 1. Heard, Learned counsel for the applicant, Miss Astha Sharma, Learned Advocate, holding the brief of Sri Surendra Mohan Mishra, the Learned counsel for the informant, the Learned A.G.A. for the State and perused the record. 2. The present anticipatory bail application has been filed on behalf of the applicant in Case Crime No.89 of 2026, under Sections 115(2), 117(2), 352, 351(3), 191(2), 109(1), 3(5) of the B.N.S. 2023, P.S.- Jogiya Udaipur, District- Siddharth Nagar, with a prayer to enlarge him on anticipatory bail as the applicant apprehends his arrest in the above- mentioned case. 3. Learned counsel for the applicant has contended that the applicant has been falsely implicated in the present case. The F.I.R. was initially lodged against 8 to 10 unknown persons but none of the injured, who are 4 in number, have received any injury which may be considered to be dangerous to life. Except the injured Manoj Singh, the other injured have all received simple injuries. The injured Manoj Singh has received a fracture on his finger which, although is a grievous injury, is not an injury which can be considered to be dangerous to life. The injured have only Versus Counsel for Applicant(s) : Ravindra Prakash Srivastava Counsel for Opposite Party(s) : G.A., Surendra Mohan Mishra Ravikant Yadav .....Applicant(s) State of U.P. .....Opposite Party(s) assigned a general role to the applicant and the co-accused. Similarly situated co-accused Shashikant has been granted anticipatory bail by this Court in CRIMINAL MISC. ANTICIPATORY BAIL APPLICATION U/S 482 BNSS No. - 8708 of 2026. The applicant has no criminal antecedents. 4. Miss Astha Sharma, Learned Advocate, holding the brief of Sri Surendra Mohan Mishra, the Learned counsel for the informant and the Learned A.G.A. for the State have opposed the prayer for grant of anticipatory bail and have contended that the applicant is equally involved in the present case with the other accused. In fact, 5 people have received injuries. The Learned A.G.A. and the Learned counsel for the informant, however, could not dispute the fact that the case of the applicant stands on a similar footing to that of the co-accused Shashikant nor the fact that the applicant has no criminal antecedents. 5. I have considered the submissions made by the Learned counsels for the parties and perused the material brought on the record. 6. No specific role has been assigned to the applicant. The case of the applicant stands on a similar footing to that of the co-accused Shashikant, who has already been enlarged on anticipatory bail by this Court in CRIMINAL MISC. ANTICIPATORY BAIL APPLICATION U/S 482 BNSS No. - 8708 of 2026. The applicant has no criminal antecedents. 7. Taking into account all the facts and circumstances of the case and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I deem it fit to enlarge the applicant on anticipatory bail. 8. In view of the above, the anticipatory bail application of the applicant is allowed. NABAIL No. 8691 of 2026 2 9. In the event of the arrest of the applicant Ravikant Yadav, he shall be released forthwith in the aforesaid case crime on anticipatory bail on furnishing a personal bond and surety each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the Station House Officer of the police station/Court concerned with the following conditions:- i. the applicant shall make himself available for interrogation by a police officer as and when required; ii. that 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 him from disclosing such facts to the Court or to any police officer; iii. that the applicant shall not leave India without the previous permission of the Court; iv. that the applicant shall not pressurize/intimidate the prosecution witness; 10. In case of breach of any of the above conditions, the Court concerned shall be at liberty to cancel the bail. 11.
