¶1Heard Sri Arvind Pratap Singh, learned counsel for the applicant, Sri Akhilesh Kumar Vyas, learned A.G.A. for the State and perused the records.

¶2The instant application has been filed seeking release of the applicant on bail in Case Crime No.515 of 2022, under Sections 420, 467, 468, 471, 352, 506 I.P.C., registered at Police Station Kotwali Rudauli, District Faizabad/Ayodhya.

¶3The aforesaid case has been registered on the basis of an F.I.R. lodged on 03.11.2022 alleging that the applicant had paid Rs.3.50 Lakh to the informant towards a consideration for purchasing a plot of land and the applicant executed a sale-deed on 19.03.2021, wherein he wrongly mentioned the consideration to be Rs.1.0 Lakh.

¶4Subsequently, the informant came to know that the applicant had already sold his share in the property wayback in the year 2005.

¶5In the affidavit filed in support of bail application, it has been stated that the applicant is an innocent person who is illiterate, he has been falsely implicated in the present case and he has no criminal history. He had gone merely to witness the sale-deed executed in the year 2005 and he had not gone to execute the sale deed and upon coming to know about the sale-deed executed in the year 2005, he has filed Suit No.419 of 2023 in the Court of Civil Judge, Senior Division, Hawali, Faizabad for cancellation of sale-deed dated 04.03.2005.

¶6The learned A.G.A. has opposed the prayer for bail but he could not dispute the aforesaid aspects of the matter.

¶7Having considered the aforesaid facts and circumstances of the case and without making any observation, which may affect the merits of the case, I am of the view that the aforesaid facts are sufficient for making out a case for enlargement of the applicant on bail in the aforesaid crime.

¶8Accordingly, this bail application stands allowed.

¶9Let the applicant-Angad Singh be released on bail in aforementioned case on furnishing a personal bond and two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of magistrate/court concerned, subject to following conditions:-
