ATIBAL SINGH Appellant
VERSUS
STATE OF UTTAR PRADESH Respondents

JUDGEMENT

- (1.) K. Narayan, J. This is application for bail by Atibal Singh said to be involved in a case under Section 18/20, N. D. P. S. Act registered at Crime No. 313 of 1994, P. S. Kalyanpur, District Fatehpur.
(2.) IT is rather a peculiar case where with a single recovery memo dated 13-12-1994, different articles were recovered from different persons and cases have been separated in rather peculiar manner. IT is alleged in the said memo that one person was carrying card-board package over his head, the other gunny bag and the third had a bag in his hand. The man having card board package was shown as Jai Narayau and the package was shown to contain pouches of country liquor and another article was said to have been recovered from his pocket of trouser which was believed to be Charas weighing 175 grams. The second was Tribal, the present applicant and from his possession it was shown that a plastic bag containing pouches of country liquor and some 80 grams of Charas was recovered. 1 will leave the case of third for the present. The material aspect is that in the matter of recovery of the country liquor a case was registered separately as Crime No. 312 of 1994 under Section 60 of the U. P. Excise Act and while in respect of alleged re covery of Charas, a separate case was registered. It is settled law that whenever there are more offences than one committed within the specific period of three months or if it was in one tran saction in any manner, they have to be tried together. This aspect need not be gone into in detail and suffice it will to say, that the very fact that the cases have been bifurcated just to increase the number of cases and the impression that the person concerned in less after the offence itself and more after harassment cannot be looked upon with an eye of approval by any court. In the circumstances, the applicant is entitled to bail. It may also be mentioned that the applicant has already been granted bail in the matter of crime under Section 60 of the U. P. Excise Act.
(3.) APPLICANT Arial shall be admitted to bail in case Crime No. 313 of 1994, under Section 18/20 of the N. D. P. S. Act, P. S. Kalyanpur, district Fatehpur on his furnishing two sureties and a personal band in the like amount to the satisfaction of C. J. M. concerned. Bail granted. .;
