2 advocates charged for rescuing history-sheeter get conditional bail

Kanpur: Two advocates–Gopal Sharan Singh and Narayan Singh Bhadauria— arrested for forcibly rescuing a history-sheeter from police custody and for manhandling the cops, have been granted conditional bail here on Tuesday.
District judge RP Singh in his order stated that without making any comment on merits of the case, conditional bail was being granted to Gopal Sharan Singh and Narayan Singh Bhadauria after they furnished two bail bonds of Rs 25,000 each and a personal bond of the like amount.
The district judge in his order directed the accused-applicants to co-operate in the trial, not to pressurise witnesses, present themselves for examination-in-chief and cross examination and not seek adjournments without any valid reason.
Moving the bail application the defence counsel said the accused-advocates have been in jail since June 6.
As the charges levelled against them attract maximum three years imprisonment, therefore, they are entitled for bail.
On the other hand, the additional district government counsel (ADGC) urged the court to reject their bail application as the case is in the investigation stage and moreover the accused had helped the history-sheeter to escape from the police custody.
Earlier, the lower court (ACMM-III) had rejected their bail application.
On June 2, police had caught Manoj Kumar, a history-sheeter when he went to attend a birthday party at a guest house.
When the cops, in plain clothes, took Manoj in their custody and made him sit in the jeep, some people, including the accused advocates, allegedly manhandled the police and helped Manoj to escape from police custody.
The accused advocates were arrested on the basis of videos that had gone viral and sent them to jail on June 7.
