On further interrogation, all the accused alleged to have stated that they have sold the ganja to the present petitioner/A8, who is a retailer.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the other accused have already enlarged on bail, and in the present case, except the confession of A1 to A3, there is no other material to implicate the present petitioner.
