Vide order dated 25.04.2025, this Court had granted
16:52:20 IST
Reason:
interim bail to the petitioner upto 16.05.2025. The
counter affidavit of the State is not on record,
2
though Mr. Abhishek Kumar Gupta, learned counsel
appearing for the State, has opposed the prayer for
bail of the petitioner.
Considering the period of incarceration of the
petitioner and the entire facts and circumstances of
this case, we are of the opinion that a case of
regular bail is made out for the petitioner and
therefore, the prayer for bail is allowed.
Accordingly, the petitioner is directed to be
released on bail on the usual terms and conditions to
be decided by the concerned Court.
The present Special Leave Petition shall stand
disposed of in the above terms along with pending
application(s), if any.
