ABA/264/2026 Alijaan --Applicant Versus State Of Uttarakhand --Respondent Hon'ble Alok Mahra, J.
Mr. Karan Singh Dugtal, learned counsel for the applicant.
Mr. S.S. Chauhan, learned Deputy Advocate General for the State of Uttarakhand.
2. By means of the present application, the applicant seeks grant of anticipatory bail in connection with Range Case No. 5/2026-27 dated 18.05.2026, registered under Sections 2, 9, 39, 49, 50 and 51 of the Wild Life (Protection) Act, 1972, Police Station Forest Department, District Haridwar.
3. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in the present case. It is submitted that the applicant apprehends his arrest during the course of investigation and, therefore, seeks the discretionary relief of anticipatory bail.
4. Per contra, learned State Counsel, on the basis of the counter affidavit, opposes the application and submits that the applicant is not cooperating with the investigation despite repeated opportunities. It is further submitted that a Non-Bailable Warrant has already been issued against the applicant and he has been declared a proclaimed offender. It is, therefore, contended that the applicant is not entitled to the extraordinary discretionary relief of
UKHC010113782026
2026:UHC:6493 anticipatory bail.
5. I have considered the rival submissions and perused the material available on record.
6. From the material placed before this Court, it appears that the applicant has not cooperated with the investigation. The record further reveals that a Non-Bailable Warrant has been issued against him and he has also been declared a proclaimed offender. In such circumstances, the conduct of the applicant disentitles him from claiming the equitable and discretionary relief of anticipatory bail.
7. In view of the aforesaid facts and circumstances of the case, this Court does not find any good ground to exercise its discretionary jurisdiction in favour of the applicant.
8. Accordingly, the present anticipatory bail application is dismissed.
