It has been contended by the learned counsel for the applicant that applicant has been falsely implicated in the present case and he has not committed the alleged offence. It is next contended that only one case has been shown against the applicant in the Gang Chart (Annexure- 2 to the affidavit filed in support of bail application) and in the said case and other cases, applicant has been granted bail which has been properly explained in paragraph 7, of the affidavit filed in support of bail application. Further submission is that there is also no possibility of applicant either fleeing away from the judicial process or tampering with the witnesses. Applicant who is in jail since 17.12.2018 undertakes that he will not misuse the liberty, if granted.
