Diyyala Balaiah , Bairi Balaiah, v. The State Of A.P.,

THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.9325 OF 2016 ORDER:

This petition is filed by the petitioners-accused Nos.1 to 4 under Sections 437 and 439 Cr.P.C. seeking to grant bail to them in Crime No.118 of 2016 on the file of II Town Police Station, Nandyal, Kurnool District, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 302 r/w 34 IPC.

Heard and perused the material available on record. It is alleged that A3 and A4 caught hold of the deceased, who is the husband of the de facto-complainant, and A1 and A2 stabbed him with knives.

Learned Counsel for the petitioners submitted that the petitioner did not stab the deceased and that the deceased was in the habit of consuming alcohol and under the influence of alcohol, he fell on the floor and received head injury and while undergoing treatment, he died and that the petitioners were arrested on 25.5.2016 and since then, they have been in prison and that the entire case is based on circumstantial evidence.

Learned Additional Public Prosecutor, while opposing this petition, submitted that the investigation so far done reveals the participation of the petitioners in the above crime and that the investigation has not yet been completed.

Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and the submissions made by the learned Additional Public Prosecutor, this Court is not inclined to grant bail to the petitioners at this stage. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is dismissed. ______________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO Date : 12.7.2016 Nn
