Bail Application Number 784 of 2002 Order on the Bail Application CRIMINAL SIDE Shyam Singh son of Sri Shri Attar Singh, resident of village Rampur Raighati, Raisi, P.S. Laksar, District Hardwar …………………Applicant(s) Versus State of Uttaranchal ………………………..Opposite Party Arising out of- Case crime no. 175 of 1999 Under section 2(I) (III) 3(I) of U.P. Gangster Act, P.S. Laksar, District Hardwar By the Court Hon’ble Irshad Hussain, J. Heard learned counsel for the applicant-accused and the learned A.G.A. The applicant-accused is in jail for the last about two years. There were three criminal cases against him. He has been acquitted in one. In another, he is on bail. The third one pertains to 60 Excise Act. There is no previous conviction to the credit of the applicant and considering this fact, there are reasonable grounds to accept at this stage the argument that the applicant has not committed the offence and there is no likelihood of his involving himself in similar activity in future.Considering totality of circumstances of the case, I find it to be a fit case for bail. Let the applicant Shyam Singh, son of Sri Shri Attar Singh, resident of village Rampur Raighati, Raisi, P.S. Laksar, District Hardwar be released on bail in case crime no.175 of 1999,under section 2(I) (III) 3(I) of U.P. Gangster Act, P.S.
