Heard Mr. RP Nautiyal, Advocate for the applicant and Mr. BS Parihar, Brief Holder for the State. Learned counsel for the applicant submitted that from the possession of the applicant-Shoorver Singh, leopard skin was shown to be recovered while from the possession of the applicant-Raju, Beer Pitti was shown to be recovered. The applicants are in jail since 15.9.10 and have got no previous criminal history. Further, no independent witness was taken at the time of arrest, though the recovery was made at the public place, which creates a doubt in the prosecution story. After considering all the facts and circumstances and without expressing any opinion about the final merits of the case, the Court is of the view that the present applicants deserve bail at this stage. Let the applicants be released on bail on each of their executing personal bonds and furnishing two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of CJM, Dehradun. The bail application is allowed accordingly. (Dharam Veer, J.) November 9, 2010 Rdang
