However, the informant had told him that the driver was not available. Subsequently, the co-accused Chandan Kumar had taken the key of the vehicle on the pretext of washing the vehicle and thereafter, Chandan Kumar had

It is further submitted that the petitioner is having a clean antecedent. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of informant has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail.
