(Applicant/accused Vikas Bhadoriya) 06.02.2026 ORDER ON THE REGULAR BAIL APPLICATION OF APPLICANT/ACCUSED VIKAS BHADORIYA. Present: Sh. Parmod Kumar, Ld. Addl. PP for State. 1. This is the 5th bail application u/s 483 BNSS filed on behalf of applicant Vikas Bhadoriya seeking to grant him regular bail, in FIR No. 698/2023 P.S. Harsh Vihar registered under Section 307/34 IPC. Applicant is in JC since 28.02.2024. The present matter is pending before this court at the stage of prosecution evidence. 2. The case of the prosecution is that on 24.12.2023, applicant along with two other co-accused persons namely Akash Danny and Rajan Chaudhary, in furtherance of their common intention, fired at the complainant Karan Singh but the latter managed to save himself. The specific role of applicant in the crime is that he aimed the pistol at complainant Karan Singh but could not succeed in firing since he was caught hold from behind by the complainant’s brother Surender Singh due to which the pistol fell down on the spot from his hand, however, co-accused Akash fired at the complainant. Thereafter, applicant along with co-accused Akash @ Danny fled away from the spot, but accused -- 1 of 3 -- Rajan Chaudhary was apprehended at the spot. Later on, applicant was arrested on 28.02.2024. 3. Ld. counsel for applicant submits that applicant has been falsely implicated in this case; key witnesses of the prosecution have already been examined; no recovery was effected from the applicant; PW Ravi has not supported the case of the prosecution; vide order dated 02.05.2025, the Hon’ble Delhi High Court admitted the applicant/accused on interim bail which was not misused by him and after expiry of the same, he timely surrendered in jail; he is in JC for almost two years and no purpose shall be served by keeping him further in custody especially when all the material witnesses of the prosecution have already been examined and victim Karan also has no objection if this application is allowed. 4. Ld. Addl. PP has opposed this application firstly on the ground that on 22.09.2025, the applicant’s last bail application was dismissed by this court and since then there is no change of circumstance to file this application. On merits, he submits that complainant Karan Singh (PW1) and his brothers namely Mangal Singh (PW3) and Surender Singh (PW5), all eye witnesses to the incident, have supported the prosecution case and specifically named and identified the applicant during their respective evidence. He also submits that pistol was recovered from the possession of the applicant. Applicant is argued to be involved in one other case of similar nature. 5. Arguments considered. 6. Since dismissal of the applicant’s last bail application on 22.09.2025, no change of circumstance is pointed out by Ld. Counsel to admit the applicant on bail; on prima facie -- 2 of 3 -- perusal of testimonies of eye witnesses especially PW-1, PW-3 & PW-5, it appears that they have supported the case of the prosecution; the role ascribed to the applicant in the occurrrence is specific; as per record, applicant is involved in several other cases of similar nature; no objection of victim to grant bail to the applicant is inconsequential in view of the severity of the offence. In the entirety of the facts and circumstances, at this stage, no ground for bail is made out. Hence, the present bail application is hereby dismissed.Nothing stated herein above shall tantamount to the expression of opinion on merits of the case. Copy of this order be sent to Jail Suptd. concerned for information to applicant.
