Leaned counsel for the petitioner inter alia contends that petitioner has falsely been implicated under Section 414 IPC. He has no involvement in the murder of Sachin and Sunil, aforesaid. Petitioner is in custody since 17.08.2017. Conclusion of trial may take long time. No useful purpose would be served by detaining the petitioner in jail. 4.

On the other hand, learned State counsel vehemently opposed the above submission of learned counsel for the petitioner. 5.

Considering overall facts and circumstances, but without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, the petition is allowed. Consequently, petitioner-Akash @ Angad, is ordered to be released on bail pending trial, on his furnishing bail bonds and surety bonds to the satisfaction of Trial Court/Duty Magistrate concerned.
