    Because the reduced charge under section 304(a) Penal Code is a non-bailable offence and the prosecution had established a prima facie case at the close of its case, the applicant failed to demonstrate exceptional grounds (the asserted delay did not qualify) and release posed a real risk of interference with witnesses; therefore bail is refused under section 388(2) CPC.
