P.C. : 1. Heard. 2. I have gone through the F.I.R. and the statements recorded during investigation, copies of which are annexed to the Bail Application. The other two accused have already been released on bail. Though the claim of parity, as put forth by the learned Advocate for the Applicant, may be debatable, the fact remains that there are no circumstances justifying the Applicant to be treated very differently, for the purposes of bail, than the other accused, who have been released on bail. There are no antecedents. The Applicant is in custody since 30th November, 2010. The trial has not yet commenced. 3. Under the circumstances, I am inclined to release the Applicant on bail.
