Perused affidavit, counter affidavit and the document filed by the parties. It was contended on behalf of the learned counsel for the applicant that the evidence against the accused/applicant is the statement of co- accused Rakesh in which he has stated that he and the present applicant had committed the murder of the deceased; the fact that the extra judicial confession of Rakesh before Salim and Anil on 19/08/2007; the fact that Rakesh had already released on bail on 18th December, 2007 in Bail Application No. 1413 of 2007 by this Court; and this is the case of parity.
