It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that confessional statement of co-accused does not have any evidentiary value but, in my view, the confessional statement of co-accused is relevant for the purpose of investigation and the

Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances as well as submissions of the parties and also keeping in mind the criminal antecedent of the petitioner, I am not inclined to grant the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner and accordingly, his prayer for anticipatory bail in connection with Nauhatta P.S.
