BHAIYA LALversusSTATE OF U.P.

Decided

Holding

The court held that bail could not be granted in the present case.

Summary

The applicant, Bhaiya Lal, was arrested in connection with Crime No. 424 of 2025 under Sections 109(1) and 351(3) of the B.N.S. for alleged assault with a lathi-danda and axe. He claimed innocence, stating that no specific role was assigned to him in the FIR and that no incriminating material was recovered from him. The State, represented by the A.G.A., opposed bail, highlighting medical evidence of serious head injuries, fractures, and extensive wounds to the alleged victim, indicating a grave offence. The court examined the submissions and the medical report, finding the seriousness of the injuries and the allegations sufficient to deny bail. Consequently, the bail application was rejected, and the applicant remains in custody pending trial.
