This is an Application through jail. The Applicant has prayed that he may be allowed to submit cash bail in lieu of sureties as he is unable to get any sureties. He has further stated that though he was directed to be released on bail on 28th January 2015, because of the fact that he was unable to furnish one or two sureties in the amount directed by the Trial Court, he is still languishing in jail. 2.

Heard the learned APP. The learned APP submits that taking into consideration the fact that the order granting bail to the Applicant was passed on 28th January 2015, appropriate orders in the interest of justice may be passed.
