Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned A.G.A. Perused the record.
Learned counsel for the applicant has placed forth the circumstances under which the accused-applicant could not appear before the court when he was required and as a result of which his bail got cancelled. It has been submitted that henceforth no default shall be committed by the accused and he is prepared to give an undertaking that he will faithfully make themselves available to the court on each and every date and is also ready to accept all the conditions which the Court may deem fit to impose upon him. It has also been submitted that the applicant is languishing in jail since 12.03.2018 and in the wake of heavy pendency of cases in the Court, there is no likelihood of any early conclusion of trial.
