The said case is mainly under Sections 420, 468 of IPC. 3. In the present case, the investigation is over and the charge-sheet has been filed. It is the case of the prosecution that the co-accused was found plying a rickshaw. On enquiry from the RTO Office it was found that the rickshaw was not registered with RTO and all the documents relating ..(2).. to rickshaw were forged. Co-accused Shivbalak Gupta has stated that the present applicant gave him the rickshaw to ply and the documents relating to the rickshaw. There is no material to show that the applicant was the owner of the rickshaw. It is not even the prosecution case that the applicant was the owner of the rickshaw. Looking to all these facts, I am inclined to grant bail to the applicant. 4.
