4.

The Court below rejected the bail application of the applicant on the ground that the other co-accused Manish Bhat is not traced out and the applicant, knowing fully well about his income has sought for issuance of creamy layer certificate. 5.

Prime facie, in my view, the further detention of the applicant will be of hardly any assistance to the prosecution.
