No. Date Office Notes, reports, orders or proceedings or directions and Registrar’s order with Signatures COURT’S OR JUDGE’S ORDERS ABA/475/2023 Vasim --Applicant Versus State Of Uttarakhand --Respondent Hon'ble Alok Mahra, J. None turns up on behalf of the applicant. Mr. Prabhat Kandpal, learned A.G.A. for the State of Uttarakhand. 2. By means of the present application, the applicant seeks the grant of anticipatory bail in connection with F.I.R. No. 0380 of 2023, registered at Police Station Bhagwanpur, District Haridwar, for the offences punishable under Sections 3, 5 and 11 of the Uttarakhand Prevention of Cow Progeny Act, 2007. 3. Learned State Counsel submits that the investigation has since been concluded and the charge-sheet has already been filed before the competent Court. 4. Having heard learned counsel for the parties, perused the material available on record, and considered the rival submissions, this Court finds that the applicant has remained protected by virtue of the interim order dated 27.06.2023 and has duly complied with the conditions incorporated therein by extending full cooperation during the course of the investigation. The investigation has culminated in the submission of the charge- sheet before the competent Court. No material has been placed before this Court to indicate that the applicant has misused the liberty granted to him or has failed to cooperate with the investigating agency. It is also not the case of the prosecution that the custodial interrogation of the applicant is required at this stage. Having regard to the nature of the allegations, the stage of the proceedings, the conduct of the applicant during the period of interim protection, and the facts and circumstances of the case, and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the UKHC010096292023 2026:UHC:6066 prosecution case, this Court is of the considered opinion that the applicant has made out a fit case for confirmation of the interim anticipatory bail granted earlier. 5. Consequently, the interim anticipatory bail granted to the applicant vide order dated 27.06.2023 is hereby confirmed and made absolute. The applicant shall remain on anticipatory bail on the same terms and conditions as contained in the aforesaid order and shall continue to cooperate with the trial proceedings. It shall also be open to the learned trial Court to impose such further conditions, if considered necessary, in accordance with law. 6. Accordingly, the Anticipatory Bail Application stands allowed.
