Act.
4. It is submitted by the counsel for the applicant that it is a case of chain snatching. Although the gold chain seized from possession of applicant wasduly identified but the complainant has failed to identify the applicant, therefore,at the most it can be said that the applicant was the recipient of stolen property.So far as criminal antecedents are concerned, four cases of similar nature werefalsely registered by the police in the year 2023 itself. The trial is likely to takesufficiently long time and there is no possibility of his absconding or tamperingwith prosecution case.
5. Per contra, the application is vehemently opposed by the counsel forthe State. It is submitted that applicant has a criminal history of seven criminalcases including the present one. It is submitted that the chain seized from thepossession of applicant was duly identified but fairly conceded that applicantwas not identified in Test Identification Parade.
