It was also submitted by the applicant the accused is the sole bread earner of his family and in his absence the family of the petitioner will face hardships, starvation and will come to road side. Moreover, it was also submitted that the pandemic disease Covid-19 is spreading throughout the world and has serious effects upon the lives of the people at large and in case the accused is not released on bail, there is every chance that he may get infected in jail due to presence of large number of prisoners while as the Hon’ble Supreme Court has taken lenient view regarding the release of under trials.
