Heard learned Advocate Ms. Avnika Panchal for the Applicant and learned APP Ms. Maithili Mehta for the Respondent State. Submission of the Parties: 4. Learned advocate for the applicant-accused has submitted that the applicant – accused is not likely to flee away from justice. That he will abide by whatever conditions imposed by the Hon'ble Court.

He further submitted that if the Hon'ble Court is inclined to grant bail then in such case strict conditions may be imposed to secure the presence of the Applicant Accused. Merits of the Case: 6. This court has considered the following aspects : (a) As such, there is no offence against the applicant-accused; (b) the victim is discharged from the hospital; (c) as per catena of decisions of Hon’ble Supreme Court, there are mainly three factors which are required to be considered by the court i.e. prima facie case, availability of applicant - accused at the time of trial and hampering and tampering with the witnesses by the accused; (d) the learned advocate for the applicant has submitted that the applicant is not likely to flee away; (e) the applicant is in custody since 02.05.2022; (f) law laid down by the Hon'ble Apex Court in the case of Sanjay Chandra v.
