The Allahabad High Court on Monday granted bail to a Muslim youth named Fuzail who has been accused selling of sugarcane juice that was adulterated with beef.
The bench of Justice Deepak Verma granted him bail keeping in view the nature of offence, evidence, and complicity of the accused and the law laid down by the Apex Court in the case of Satender Kumar Antil vs Central Bureau Of Investigation, reported Live Law.
Fuzail who was booked under Sections 323, 504, 295-A I.P.C. and Section 3, 5 of U.P. Prevention of Cow Slaughter Act, 1955, had moved the High Court seeking bail on the ground that he is innocent and has been falsely implicated in the case due to ulterior motive.
Fuzail’s lawyer Hasan Parvez told the court that Fuzail is engaged in selling sugarcane juice and he was implicated in the case by the informant making a concocted story after a dispute arose between the parties regarding the payment of money, the legal website reported.
The Muslim youth was arrested on November 30, 2022.
