The submissions are, the Applicant is falsely implicated in the crime in question. The allegations in the FIR cannot be corroborated with other evidence as the complainant himself claimed to be injured and there

2/2 Yadav 3-B.ba.334.19 is no injury certificate on record. The further submission is, neither the weapon was recovered from the Applicant nor the blood stained clothes. The statements of the eye-witnesses are relied upon for implication of the Applicant.

3.

Per contra, the learned APP based on the investigation papers submits that there is strong prima facie evidence. Having considered submissions, the fact remains that the weapon used in the commission of crime is already recovered. The eye-witnesses including the complainant in categorical terms named the Applicant of having played active role in the offence in question.

The alleged offence is punishable with life. That being so, no case for grant of bail is made out. Hence, the Criminal Application stands rejected.
