He contended that while disposing of the 3rd application, the Court taking into consideration the fact that the applicants wife was suffering from heart disease granted a short term bail for 15 days. The applicant complied with the terms of the order and surrendered.

He urged that after the disposal of the application of the applicant on 30-10-1998, co-accused Kishore Maheshwari has been granted bail vide order dated 30-11-1998 and the case of the applicant is similar.
