The other co-accused Pradeep and Furkan have also been granted bail by the co-ordinate Bench of this Court vide order dated 05.03.2025 and 18.03.2025 respectively. Therefore, the applicant may also be enlarged on bail. The applicant has no previous criminal antecedents and he is languishing in jail since 30.09.2024. It is also undertaken on behalf of the applicant that he shall abide by all terms and conditions as imposed by the Court while granting bail. 3. Per contra, learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State has vehemently opposed the instant bail application but he could not dispute the aforesaid facts as stated by the learned counsel appearing on behalf of applicant. 4.
