UKHC010110472026 BA2/95/2026 Jashandeep Singh Gill Alias Jashan --Applicant Versus State of Uttarakhand --Respondent Hon’ble Rakesh Thapliyal, J.
Mr. D.K. Sharma, learned senior counsel assisted by Mr. Lalit Sharma, Ms. Anmol Sandhu, Ms. Suraiya Naaz, learned counsel for the applicant. 2. Mr. Vijay Khanduri, learned Brief Holder, for the State of Uttarakhand. 3. Mr. Arvind Vashistha, learned senior counsel assisted by Ms. Devanshi Joshi, learned counsel for the complainant. 4. The present applicant Jashandeep Singh Gill @ Jashan S/o Late Harpal Singh, is praying for bail in a reference to FIR dated 28.12.2025 bearing FIR No.0592 of 2025, Police Station Rudrapur, District Udham Singh Nagar, wherein, the present applicant has been chargesheeted for the offences punishable under Sections 103 (1), 109 and 3 (5) of BNS, 2023 read with Sections 3/25 and 27/30 of the Arms Act. 5. This is the second bail application and the first bail application was rejected on 18.03.2026, and now on fresh ground that the chargesheet has already been filed, the instant second bail application has been moved. 6. In reference to one incident, the two FIRs has been lodged on 28.12.2025 bearing FIR No.0592 of 2025 and FIR No.0593 of 2025. FIR No.0593 of 2025 has been lodged by one Sub-Inspector Kavinder Sharma. 7. It is argued by the learned senior counsel for the applicant that though there are two FIRs in reference to the same incident and in both the FIRs two chargesheet has been filed and in FIR No.0593 of 2025, in total 11 persons have been chargesheeted and in the present FIR, in which the applicant is charged
i.e. FIR No.0592 of 2025, only the present applicant is chargesheeted. He submits that chargesheeting 11 persons in reference to the FIR No.0593 of 2025, itself reveals that other side were more aggressors. He submits that there is no any such material or evidence that due to the fire caused by the present applicant, the deceased died. He further submits that the chargesheet has already been filed and there is no need of further custodial interrogation, and the dispute is with regards to agricultural land and the applicant is languishing in jail since 31.12.2025 and have no previous criminal antecedents therefore he may be released on bail. 8.
Learned senior counsel submits that in FIR No.0593 of 2025, 11 persons have been chargesheeted which itself reveals that the accused persons are more aggressor. 9. On the other side, Mr. Arvind Vashistha, learned senior counsel, submits that in this particular case one another co-accused, namely, Vishal is still absconding, however, he has not disputed that the chargesheet in both the FIRs has been filed, and submits that the subsequent FIR i.e. FIR No.0593 of 2025, was not maintainable since already in reference to the incident, the FIR No.0592 of 2025 was lodged. 10. On the other side, learned Brief Holder for the State have not disputed that the present applicant have no criminal antecedents and the chargesheet has already been filed and part pending investigation against the another co-accused who is absconding is going on. He also submits that 11 persons have been chargesheeted in FIR No.0593 of 2025 which shows that they were more aggressor. 11. After hearing the submissions of the learned counsel for the parties, and taking into consideration that the chargesheet has been filed and the applicant is languishing in jail since 31.12.2025, and he has no criminal antecedents and there is no need of further custodial interrogation, therefore, this Court is of the view that the applicant deserves for bail. 12. Accordingly without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, bail application is allowed. 13. Let the applicant – Jashandeep Singh Gill @ Jashan, be released on bail, on his executing a personal
bond and furnishing two reliable sureties, each of the like amount to the satisfaction of the Court concerned, subject to the following conditions:-
“(a). The applicant after being released on bail, the applicant shall cooperate in the trial court proceedings on each and every date without seeking any unnecessary adjournment.
(b) The applicant will not leave the country without leave of the Trial Court and surrender his passport within three days’ from the date of his release.”
