On the date of occurrence, A1 started hitting the victim since he was demanding for higher amount of salary from A2. The specific overt act against this petitioner is that only on the instigation of A2/petitioner, A1 murdered the victim.

3. The learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that the petitioner is an innocent person and he has been falsely implicated in this case. Hence, he prays for grant of bail to the petitioner. https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/
