No.24210 of 2016 (3) dt.12-08-2016 P2/2 counsel appearing on behalf of the State and after perusing all the materials on record including the complaint petition in both the cases, I find that it is a case of gang-rape in which the victim was brutally assaulted and she succumbed to her injuries on account of the said gang-rape.

As such, I am not inclined to release the petitioners on anticipatory bail. It is accordingly rejected. (Anjana Mishra, J) Saif/- U T
