Reason:
467, 468 and 120-B of the Indian Penal
Code, 1860, and Sections 4, 20, 21 and 25
of the Indian Telegraph Act, 1885.
The appellant, Karam Allahi, has been
in custody since 10.02.2021. Though the
trial is ongoing, we are informed that
only 7 out of the listed 14 witnesses have
been examined till date. The co-accused of
the appellant, Karam Allahi, have all been
granted bail.
We, therefore, find no grounds to
continue the incarceration of the
appellant, Karam Allahi, pending
completion of the trial.
Accordingly, we accept the present
appeal and direct that the appellant,
Karam Allahi, shall be released on bail in
connection with the aforestated FIR on
such appropriate terms and conditions as
may be fixed by the trial Court.
In addition thereto, the appellant
shall cooperate during the course of the
trial and shall not delay the proceedings2
therein.
The impugned order is set aside and
the appeal is allowed in the aforestated
terms.
We clarify that we have not made any
observations/comments on the merits of the
case and any observation made in this
order is meant only for the limited
purpose of grant of bail.
Pending application(s), if any, shall
stand disposed of.
