SUPREME COURT OF INDIA

SHISHIR KUMAR TRIVEDI – Appellant
Versus
STATE OF U.P. – Respondent
Criminal Appeal No. /2026 | SLP [CRL.] NO.13061/2025



Advocates:
For the Appellants/Petitioners: Gourave Kumar Agarwal
For the Respondents: Shaurya Sahay, Aman Jaiswal, Sharvi Sharma, Ashish Singh

Anticipatory bail may be granted and non-bailable warrants set aside when the accused demonstrates consistent cooperation by appearing before the Trial Court, particularly if delays in the trial are attributable to the prosecution.

Headnote:The matter pertains to an application for anticipatory bail in connection with FIR No. 201/2021, registered under Sections 120B, 420, 467, 468, and 471 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860. The appellants sought relief against the impugned order of the High Court, asserting their continued cooperation with the trial proceedings. The court examined whether the appellants were entitled to anticipatory bail given their conduct. The court observed that the appellants had been appearing before the Trial Court and that the proceedings had been adjourned multiple times at the instance of the prosecution, leading to the conclusion that the non-bailable warrants were unjustified. The appeal stands allowed, accordingly.

O R D E R

D 18a :t 5e 3: :2 00 92 I6 S. T02.27 1

Reason:

Learned counsel appearing for the appellants has submitted that the appellants have been appearing before the Trial Court, however, the matter has been adjourned a few times at the instance of the prosecution.

In such view of the matter, the non-bailable warrants issued against the appellants stand set aside, subject to the conditions that may be imposed to enable the appellants to continue their cooperation with the conduct of the trial.

In such view of the matter, we are inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the appellants.

Accordingly, the impugned order stands set aside, and the appellants are granted anticipatory bail on the terms and conditions to the satisfaction of the concerned Trial Court.

The appeal stands allowed, accordingly.

Pending application(s), if any, shall stand disposed of.
