The revenue officers and the Tehsildar who have been made accused in the case have already been bailed out. A The petitioner is in the judicial lock-up for the last 7 months. Nothing is to be recovered from him. The challan is not yet complete. Learned State counsel is not in a position to state as to when the police will be in a position to submit the challan in Court. The question whether the b petitioner was involved in manufacturing the record requires further probe. Bail cannot be refused as a matter of punishment.
