Mr. Gaurav Singh, learned counsel for the applicant. 2. Mr. B.C. Joshi, learned AGA with Mr. Vijay Khanduri, learned Brief Holder for the State. 3. Present applicant Harjeet Kashyap, S/o Late Sushil Kashyap praying for bail in relation to FIR dated 24.08.2024, bearing FIR No. 0426 of 2024 at P.S. Gangnahar, District Haridwar, lodged against unknown persons for the offence punishable under Sections 309(6), 324(2) and 351(3) of BNS 2023. 4. Learned counsel for the applicant argued that the applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated which is evident from the fact that the FIR has been lodged against unknown person; however without any credible evidence the applicant has been implicated. He further submits that the applicant is languishing in jail since 27.08.2024 and he has no criminal antecedents and the charge sheet has already been filed and the trial has been commenced, but there is no possibility that the trial would be soon, therefore, taking into consideration that he is languishing in jail since 27.08.2024 he may be enlarged on bail. 5. On the other side, Mr. B.C. Joshi, learned AGA for the State have not disputed this fact the applicant is languishing in jail since 27.08.2024 and the trial has already been commenced and furthermore the applicant has no criminal antecedent. 6. After hearing the arguments of the learned counsel for the parties and taking 2026:UHC:4734 into consideration that the applicant is languishing in jail since 27.08.2024 and he has no criminal antecedent and the trial has already been commenced but there is no possibility that the trial would be expedite soon, this Court is of the view that the present applicant deserves for bail. 7. Accordingly, without expressing any opinion on the merit of the case, the bail application is allowed. 8. Let the applicant “Harjeet Kashyap” be released on bail on her executing a personal bond and furnishing two reliable sureties of the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned.
