Bhavesh Patel of Bharuch and Devendra Gupta of Ajmer were sentenced for life for their role in the Ajmer Dargah blast that took place in 2007. The Rajasthan High Court granted bail to the two after their lawyers argued that their clients had been covicted due to "human probability and circumstantial evidence."
