CW-2026-0012Aligarh, Uttar PradeshJudgment 10 March 2026

Aligarh Resident v. State of U.P.

The judgment of the Allahabad High Court records the following account. An Aligarh resident, in jail since November 2025 in a car-theft case (Case Crime 1108/2025, PS Quarsi, Aligarh), would have been released on bail on 23 February 2026 but for the investigating officer's instructions wrongly showing 12 criminal cases instead of the 5 he had explained, a mistake the ADG (Technical Services) confirmed via CCTNS records. The High Court found there was no malafide but negligence on the IO's part that kept the applicant in jail 15 extra days for no fault of his own. The Court granted bail and directed the State to pay Rs 50,000 compensation within one month, with systemic directions on case-diary access and video-conferencing facilities. Matters not addressed in the cited judgment text are not recorded here.
