The applicant was not identified by witness from the spot where the incident took place. In fact, the applicant was not put for the Test Identification Parade since the allegation is that he was driver of Indica car in which the assailants arrived and went back with booty. There is statement of one Mr.Vijay Daulatrao Ghorpade, who stated that he had given the car on monthly rent of Rs. 9000/- to the applicant. 2. The learned APP opposes the application on the ground that the applicant was previously involved in the offence of preparation to commit dacoity. The learned Counsel for the applicant states that the applicant has been acquitted in that case. Co-accused in that case are not co-accused in the present case. Considering this and also the fact that investigation is complete and charge sheet has been filed long ago, 3 Appln 1209-10 applicant's being at large may not prejudice a fair trial. 3.
