Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submitted that the petitioner is not named in the F.I.R. but his name has transpired in confession of co-accused. 6. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the informant has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail of the petitioner and submitted that from the CDR report, it appears that prior to the occurrence, the petitioner had talked to the deceased several times. 7. Considering the fact that there is no cogent material available against the petitioner on record, I am inclined to release the petitioner, on bail.
