The appellant has no concern with the alleged incident. False allegation has been made against the appellant. The appellant is in jail since 10.11.2025.

It is further contended that similarly placed co-accused persons, namely, Aadi @ Aditya has already been granted bail by co-ordinate Bench of this Court vide order dated 2.2.2026 in Criminal Misc. Bail Application No.87 of 2026, therefore, the applicant is also entitled for bail on the ground of parity.

I have perused the bail order of the co-accused and find that the role assigned to the present appellant is almost similar to that of co-accused person, who has already been granted bail by this Court.
