Holding
The Court denied bail, holding that the petitioner’s alleged direct participation in the homicide precludes the privilege of bail.
Summary
The petitioner, Saryug Yadav, applied for regular bail in a criminal case (PS Case No. 246 of 2025) where he was accused under Sections 103 and 3(5) of the BNS for allegedly assaulting the informant’s father with various weapons, resulting in death. The petitioner’s counsel, Mr. Priyanka Singh, contended that the petitioner was falsely implicated and had no role in the incident. The State, represented by Mr. Shailendra Kumar, argued that there is a direct allegation that the petitioner assaulted the deceased with a khanti. The Court examined the seriousness of the charge and the specific allegation of direct participation in the homicide. Considering the gravity of the accusation, the Court concluded that the petitioner does not merit the privilege of bail and rejected the application.
Issues considered
- Whether regular bail should be granted to the petitioner accused under Sections 103 and 3(5) of the BNS for alleged assault leading to death
- Whether the specific allegation of the petitioner’s direct involvement (assault with a khanti) precludes the grant of bail
