Mr. Anchit Khokher, learned counsel for the applicant. 2. Mr. Tumul Nainwal, learned A.G.A. with Mrs. Shweta Badola Dobhal, learned Brief Holder for the State. 3. The instant bail application is moved on behalf of the applicant ‘Karan Singh Saini’ S/o Harkishan praying for bail in reference to First Information Report dated 23.09.2025 bearing FIR No. 367 of 2025 P.S. Bajpur, District Udham Singh Nagar lodged by one Meena, the wife of the victim, implicating the present applicant for the offence punishable under section 109(1) of BNS, 2023. 4. It is argued by the learned counsel for the applicant that the applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated and even otherwise as per the FIR itself there were other persons who saw the incident but not a single independent witness were examined and only on the basis of the statement of the wife of the injured the applicant has been implicated. 5. Apart from this, he submits that there is no any strong motive to commit this crime and only for minor issues there was some hot alteration in between the applicant and the injured. 6. Apart from this, he submits that in this incident the applicant was arrested on 23.09.2025 and he is languishing in jail since last more than ten months and he has no criminal antecedent and the charge-sheet has already been filed. UKHC010139202026 2026:UHC:6987 7. On the other side, learned State counsel have not disputed that the applicant has no previous criminal antecedents and the charge- sheet has been filed and is also languishing in jail since last more than ten months, however, after collecting all credible evidence the charge-sheet has been filed. 8. After hearing the submission of learned counsel for the parties and taking into consideration that the applicant is languishing in jail since last more than ten months, he has no criminal antecedents and the charge-sheet has already been filed and there is no need of further custodial interrogation, this court is of the view that the applicant deserves for bail. 9. Accordingly, without expressing any opinion on the merit of the case the bail application is allowed. 10. Let the applicant ‘Karan Singh Saini’ be released on bail on furnishing his personal bond and two reliable sureties each of the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned subject to the condition that after being released on bail the applicant shall join the Trial Court proceeding on each and every date without seeking any unnecessary adjournment.
