It is argued by learned counsel for the applicant that the applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in this case due to ulterior motive. It is next argued that the applicant is in jail since 06.12.2010, i.e. about nine years and statement of applicant under section 313 Cr.P.C. was recorded after closure of prosecution evidence but trial has still not concluded and reason for delay in trial is not attributable to applicant, still he is languishing in jail. It is stated that some other persons filed an application under Section 482 No.4827 of 2015 wherein an order was passed on 19.02.2015 for concluding trial within two months and matter went in Special Leave to Appeal (Criminal) No.2449 of 2015 which was decided by Supreme Court by order dated 08.05.2017, still trial has not been concluded, hence, this fourth bail application has been filed. It is next argued that co-accused Bashistha Yadav, having identical role, has already been granted bail by a co-ordinate Bench of this Court vide order dated 30.09.2019. Accordingly, the applicant is also entitled for bail on the ground of parity. There are no chances of applicant fleeing away from judicial process or tampering with prosecution evidence. He undertakes to appear personally on each and every date and also not seek any unnecessary adjournment during trial. In case, he is enlarged on bail, he will not misuse liberty of bail.
