IN THE HIGH COURT OF UTTARANCHAL AT NAINITAL Criminal Bail Application No. 596/2006 Ramesh Chandra S/o Bachi Ram R/o Village Nawar Khera Golapar P.S. Kathgodam, District Nainital …Applicant Versus State of Uttaranchal Respondent. _____________________________________________________________ Hon’ble B.C. Kandpal, J. The applicant has applied for bail in case crime No. 810/2006 U/S 302 I.P.C. P.S. Kathgodam, District Nainital. Heard Sri Kailash Joshi, learned counsel for the applicant, learned A.G.A. and perused the record. The applicant is not named in the first information report. The two witnesses who have been shown in the first information report and examined by the Investigating Officer, their statements show that the applicant was seen by them lastly in the company of the deceased. However, the learned A.G.A. has invited my attention towards the statements of other witnesses, who have state that they saw that the deceased was indulged in the exchange of hot words with some persons and the applicant was also standing at that place. Apart of the aforesaid circumstances, learned A.G.A. could not show any other clinching circumstance which may connect the applicant with the actual crime of murder at this stage. I am, therefore, of the view that it is a fit case for bail at this stage. Let the applicant Ramesh Chandra be released on bail in case crime No. 810/2006, U/S 302 I.P.C. P.S. Kathgodam, District Nainital, on his executing a personal bond and furnishing two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of C.J.M. concerned. (B.C. Kandpal, J.) Dated: 31-7-2006 ISB
