¶3Learned counsel for the applicant submits that according to the gang chart, 3 cases are shown against the applicant and in the all cases the applicant has been enlarged on bail. The bail orders have been annexed as Annexure Nos. 3, 4 & 5 to the affidavit. It is next contended that co-accused who have been challaned under the Gangster Act in the instant case crime, have been enlarged on bail.

¶4Learned A.G.A. has opposed the prayer for bail but could not satisfactorily dispute the aforesaid submissions from the record.

¶5Considering the rival submissions of learned counsel for parties and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I am of the view that the applicant is entitled to be released on bail. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed.
