Without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, the applicant is directed to be enlarged on bail subject to the conditions to be imposed by the learned Trial Court. 8. With the aforesaid, the instant application stands disposed of. PURUSHAINDRA KUMAR KAURAV, J JULY 6, 2026/ NC This is a digitally signed order.
