Petitioner has got no criminal antecedent and is in custody since 27.06.2018.

Learned counsel for the Informant vehemently opposes the prayer for bail.

Considering the direct allegation against the petitioner, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. Hence, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is hereby rejected. However, the trial court is directed to expedite the trial of the petitioner and conclude the same at the earliest. Petitioner would be at liberty to renew his prayer for bail after completing one year of custody in jail.
