The said Manoj Gupta, Aridaman Singh and the applicant is alleged to have called the brother of the informant and when the informant, his brother and driver reached the place where they were called in their Innova car and alighted from the same, they were fired upon by 4 persons on two motorcycles. The applicant, co-accused Aridaman Singh and Mahfooz Akthar are stated to be present there and have been assigned the role of indiscriminate firing in which the brother of the informant received fatal fire arm injuries and later succumbed to the injuries. It has been argued that the informant is not an eye witnesses of the incident.

The basis of such prosecution under Section 120-B IPC was the statement of the wife and father of the deceased recorded on

4.5.2025 after nearly 05 years of the alleged incident. It is argued that an attempt is being made after considerable delay of 05 years to establish the complicity of the applicant in this very case merely on the basis of hearsay and only allegation of conspiracy is being made against the applicant. It is further argued that even after several rounds of investigation supervised by several Senior Police Officers of the District Kanpur Nagar, the complicity of the applicant was not found in the commission of the crime. Several other co-accused persons named in the FIR have been charge sheeted and trial against them is proceeding on several prosecution witnesses have been examined. It is further argued that the applicant is a practicing Advocate since 2014 and has raised his voice against the police authorities highlighting their arbitrary action against the lawyer community. The applicant has been made a soft target by the annoyed Police Authorities.

Police Commissioner (Law & Enforcement), Kanpur Nagar to all the Police Stations under the Commissionerate Kanpur Nagar to implicate the applicant in various criminal cases.

It is submitted that co-accused Shyam Sushil Mishra, Mahfooz Akhtar, Virendra Pal, Manoj Gupta @ Manoj Kumar Gupta, Mohd. Ayaz @ Taishan, Tanveer Anwar @ Tanveer Badshah, Saud Akthar, Mohd. Aslam @ Gulrez, Maqbool @ Babloo Sultanpuri, Mohd. Anees, Safex Sarfi @ Haider Saifi, Mohd. Amir, Ahsan Qureshi have been enlarged on bail. The respective bail orders have been filed as a competition which is taken on record. It is submitted that the entire investigation which continued for about 05 years, the involvement of the applicant has not been found in any way directly or indirectly. In all these years, the applicant has neither induced or threatened the witnesses nor influenced the investigation or the trial in any manner and is not at a flight risk. The applicant undertakes to abide by the conditions imposed by this Court and 8 BAIL No. 25629 of 2025 not misuse the liberty of bail, if granted. Hence, bail has been prayed for. Per contra, Shri Manish Goyal, learned Addl. Advocate General/Senior Counsel appearing for the State has vehemently opposed the bail plea. In the first limb of his arguments, he submits that there is sufficient material against the applicant to implicate him to have conspired in the commission of the crime. He has taken the Court through the investigation by referring to and drawing the attention of the Court to the various parchas of the case diary to establish the complicity of the applicant. While referring to CD-68, he submits that charge sheet 605A/21 was forwarded against the accused Mahfooz Akhtar and Saud Akhtar. CD-69 records that charge sheet 605B/21 was forwarded against Manoj Gupta and Veerendra Pal while the investigation was pending against the applicant, Aridaman Singh, Rashid Kaliya, Maqbook Sultanpuri and Subham Allah. The CD-106 records that charge sheet No. 605C/21 was forwarded against Bablu Sultanpuri while investigation was pending against the applicant Aridaman Singh and Subham Allah. The investigating officer deleted the name of the applicant, which fact was recorded in CD-147. The ACP, Chawni, Kanpur Nagar passed an order on

10.4.2023 to continue the investigation against the applicant and others, which was recorded in CD-150. The investigating officer again deleted the name of the applicant, Aridaman Singh and Subham Allah recording the same in CD No. 188. The ACP again vide order dated 18.8.2024 directed investigation to continue against the applicant which was recorded in CD-189. Learned Addl. Advocate General appearing for the State has also invited the attention of this Court to the investigation recorded in CD-201, CD-202, CD-204, CD-205 and CD-209 to buttress his submission that material exists for the implication of the applicant in the form of application dated 14.4.2025 moved by the informant, statement of the informant, CDR details of the applicant, statement of the widow of the deceased recorded on 4.5.2025 and statement of Manish Awasthi, an independent witness recorded on 13.5.2025. This Court takes note of the fact that such evidence against the applicant is forthcoming after 05 years of the alleged incident. Shri Manish Goyal, learned AGA in the second limb of his arguments has 9 BAIL No. 25629 of 2025 attempted to justify the gap of 05 years i.e. 2020-2025 in gathering evidence against the applicant by submitting that the investigating officer was playing mischief and was taken to task and suspended in May, 2025. The investigating officer was changed on 26.3.2025. The erstwhile investigating officer had reported that applicant was not involved twice. Subsequently, he reported that the applicant was involved. Some Police officers involved in the investigation were also arrested. The investigation against the applicant is continuing. In the third limb of his submissions, Shri Manish Goyal, learned Addl. Advocate General contends that the applicant is not entitled to parity as claimed inasmuch as admittedly, the applicant is an Advocate and belongs to a different class of accused, he stands on a different pedestal. The applicant, if enlarged on bail, shall most certainly prejudice the trial and the same is likely to be derailed. The applicant is an influential person. The nature of accusation against him is different. He has nexus with high official and is most likely to hamper the progress of the trial. Shri Goyal, however, is not able to effectively rebut the submissions of learned Senior Counsels for the applicant as noted hereinabove. Considering all above facts and circumstances, the nature of accusations, severity of the punishment in the case of conviction and nature of supporting evidence, reasonable apprehension of tampering with the witness and prima facie case, but without commenting on merit of case, a case for bail is made out. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed. Let the accused-applicant, Deenu Upadhyay @ Dheeraj Kumar Upadhyay , involved in above mentioned case crime number be released on bail, on his executing a personal bond and two reliable sureties each, in the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned, subject to the following conditions:

1. The applicant will not tamper with the evidence.

2. The applicant will not indulge in any criminal activity.

3. The applicant will not pressurize/intimidate the prosecution witnesses and 10 BAIL No. 25629 of 2025 co-operate in the trial.

4. The applicant will appear regularly on each and every date fixed by the trial court, unless his personal appearance is exempted through counsel by the court concerned. In the event of breach of any of the aforesaid conditions, the court below will be at liberty to proceed to cancel his bail. September 19, 2025 Ravi Prakash (Ashutosh Srivastava,J.)
