No.332 of 2019 and the case of the present applicant is similar to that of the co-accused Khemsagar & Mayank Yadav and the applicant is in jail since 04.11.2016, therefore, he may also be released on bail.

Considering the fact that the co-accused has been granted bail and also taking into that the applicant is in jail since 04.11.2016, I am inclined to release the applicant on bail.
