In case the applicant is enlarged on bail, he shall not misuse the liberty of bail. Learned A.G.A. opposed the prayer for bail but could not dispute the aforesaid facts as argued by the learned counsel for the applicant. On due consideration to the submissions advanced, perusal of the record, the bail orders of the co-accused Mahendra Mishra @ Mahendra Kumar Mishra and Girjesh Chaudhary so also the fact that the applicant has no criminal history and he is languishing in jail since 18.2.2025; the offences are triable by a Magistrate; charge-sheet in the case has been filed and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I find it to be a fit case for enlarging the applicant on bail on the ground of parity.
