Jamuna Nishad Vs. State of U.P. decided by Allahabad High Court on 09.09.2009

it was the applicant who led the unruly armed crowd. Being a member of cabinet, it was expected of him that he will set an example to the citizens of the State to follow the law. It is really worrying and appalling that the caravans which followed the applicant, Cabinet Minister, carried those people who were armed with lethal weapon and wielded them against law enforcing agencies. The incident started by destroying the public property inside the police station and even the constables present there were roughed up.
Carrying a cavalcade of people armed with illegal lethal fire arms by the public representatives have become a matter of pride for them with show of force to deter ordinary people who are the real constitution framers as they have adopted and given to themselves The Constitution( See Preamble). It is the need of the hour that all these types of show of muscle power and illegal weaponry in public places must be curbed.
Looking to the record of acquittal which has been appended along with this bail application and the fact that the applicant was a minister in a Ruling Government, which is still in power in the State, the fair trial and exertion of pressure on the witnesses is not a remote possibility.
