1. This bail application has been filed under Section 439 Cr.P.C. in connection with CR No.64/2020 registered at Police Station, Sojat City, District Pali for offence under Section(s) 392 IPC.

2. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned Public Prosecutor and perused the entire material available on record.

3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the coaccused has already been enlarged on bail by this Court vide order dated 18.5.2021 and case of the petitioner is identical to that of the co-accused. He further submits that chargesheet has already been filed and the petitioner is in jail for more than six months..
