Allowing the state’s plea, a single bench of Justice Rajeev Singh observed that the public prosecutor’s application before the trial court had been filed “in good faith after careful consideration of the material on record.” The order was passed on May 4 while hearing a petition under Section 482 of the CrPC filed by Yadav, along with a criminal revision plea by the state of Uttar Pradesh. Additional advocate general VK Shahi appeared for the state.
