: In this interlocutory application, the Appellant No.1Sarjeet
Mirdha has prayed for his release on bail during the pendency of

he has not disputed the said contentions.

No.1Sarjeet Mirdha is directed to be released on bail, during the
pendency of this appeal, on furnishing bail bond of Rs.10,000/
(rupees ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount,
each, to the satisfaction of learned Additional Judicial
