Learned counsel for the applicant further submits that, the accused-applicant is languishing in jail in this matter since 6.11.2025 without having any criminal antecedents and there is no likelihood that the accused-applicant, after release on bail, may flee from the process of law or will misuse the liberty of bail. 5.
