is, in fact, a daily wage earner and hit by Covid-19 pandemic imposed lock-down, he was on his way and has been implicated falsely in the instant case. He is victim of the circumstance while he was passing by the place where the vehicle checking was taking place. He has no criminal antecedents, as per statements made in the bail application and has now been in custody since 27.02.2020.
