For Respondent(s)
UPON hearing the counsel the Court made the following
O R D E R
Despite notice on application for bail being issued on
07.11.2022, the respondents have not entered appearance. Be that as it may, keeping in view that the petitioner has been sentenced to one year of imprisonment out of which the petitioner has already served nearly four months at this point in time, we find it appropriate to release the petitioner on bail.
Accordingly, the prayer made in the application (IA No. 195994/2022) seeking grant of bail is accepted, the sentence is 2 suspended and petitioner is ordered to be released on bail subject to appropriate conditions to be imposed by the Trial Court.
The petition is accordingly, disposed of.
Pending application(s), if any, shall stand disposed of.
