It is argued by learned counsel for the applicant that applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in the present case; the applicant is not named in the F.I.R.; name of the applicant surfaced from the confessional statement of co-accused, namely, Parvej and Jiyauddin who have been granted bail by the co-ordinate Bench of this Court vide orders dated 17.01.2020 and 15.04.2020 passed in Crl. Misc. Bail Application Nos.2514 of 2020 and 5908 of 2020, respectively; general role has been assigned to all the co-accused persons; no specific allegation has been levelled against the applicant and nothing has been recovered from the possession of the applicant. There is no prospect of trial of the present case being concluded in near future. The applicant is not a previous convict. The applicant is languishing in jail since 04.06.2021 and in case he is enlarged on bail he will not misuse the liberty of bail and co-operate in trial.
