                    to be cardio respiratory arrest and the petitioner having remained in

                    custody for 6 months since 15.8.2025 together with the charge sheet

                    having been submitted in the case, the Court directs the petitioner to

                    be enlarged on bail in connection with Sirari P.S. Case no. 71 of 2025

                    on furnishing bail bond of Rs.10,000/ (Rupees Ten Thousand) with
