                 HON'BLE JITENDRA KUMAR SINHA, J.

1. Heard Shri Kailash Nath, learned counsel for the applicant, and Shri
B.P. Maurya, learned AGA for the State-respondents and perused the
record.

2. The present bail application under Section 483 of Bharatiya Nagarik
Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, has been filed on behalf of applicant, with a
prayer to release him on bail in Case Crime No.23 of 2024, under
Sections 319(2), 318(4) of B.N.S. and Section 66C and 66D of I.T. Act,
registered at Police Station Cyber Crime, District Muzaffarnagar, during
pendency of the trial.

3. It has been submitted by learned counsel for the applicant that the
applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in this case due to
ulterior motive. It is further submitted that the charge sheet in this case
has already been submitted. It is further submitted that Rs.12,80,000/- is
said to have been received by him in his bank account and on the basis of
forged authority letter purportedly issued by the applicant, co-accused
Nitesh is said to have withdrawn the entire amount. It is further submitted
that the applicant is languishing in jail since 25.01.2026, undertakes that
he will not misuse the liberty, if granted. It has also been pointed out that
in the wake of heavy pendency of cases in the Court, there is no
likelihood of any early conclusion of trial.

4. Per contra learned A.G.A. has opposed the prayer for bail of the
applicant.

                                2


5. Charge sheet in this case has already been submitted and
Rs.12,80,000/- is said to have been received by him in his bank account
and on the basis of forged authority letter purportedly issued by the
applicant, co-accused Nitesh is said to have withdrawn the entire amount.
It is further submitted that the applicant is languishing in jail since
25.01.2026.

6. Upon considering the totality of facts, nature and the evidence reflected
from record and without expressing any opinion on merits of the case, I
find it to be a fit case for bail. Hence, the present bail application is
allowed.

                                    determination of this bail application and will in no way be construed as
