Considering the submissions, materials on record, the period of detention and the fact that similarly placed co-accused person, namely Punel Tandi has already been released on bail as per order passed by this Court in BLAPL No. 6950 of 2021, I am inclined to allow the prayer for bail.

the case without fail.
