4. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is innocent and has falsely been implicated in this case. There is nothing against the petitioner in the entire case diary except his confessional statement. It has also been submitted that none had seen the occurrence and the name of the petitioner has figured only on suspicion.

5. On the other hand, the learned APP for the State has opposed the prayer for bail and submitted that during course of investigation, the petitioner has given vivid description of the murder in his confessional statement.

6. At the instance of the petitioner, blood-stained axe was recovered. From perusal of paragraph 9 of the case diary, it appears that the blood-stained axe was recovered at the instance of the petitioner.

7. Considering the above-mentioned facts and circumstances, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner, which is hereby rejected.
