The allegations against the appellant are that he removed the turban of the complainant as well as abused in the name of caste and the incident has been recorded in the CCTV as well. However, it is stated that co-accused of the appellant have already been granted anticipatory bail. 4.
Learned counsel for the appellant submits that appellant is in custody since 04.03.2025 and challan has been presented and charges have also been framed. Learned counsel further submits that since the trial is yet to commence and continuous detention of the appellant would not serve the ends of justice, therefore, prayer is made to allow the present appeal.
