consistent evident has been found against the petitioner. Not a single incriminating article has been recovered from the possession of the petitioner rather the recovered articles belong to the petitioner. There is no complain made by public for any kind of fraud made by the petitioner. The petitioner is languishing in judicial custody since 07.11.2022.
Learned APP appearing for the state has opposed the prayer of regular bail.
