The petitioner, who was arrested and remanded to judicial custody on 28.05.2022 till 03.06.2022 and thereafter remanded on 14.06.2022 for the offences punishable under Sections 147, 148, 341, 364 and 302 of IPC in crime No.387 of 2022 on the file of the respondent police, seeks bail.

2. The case of the prosecution is that, totally there are 16 accused in this case and the petitioner is A7. It is alleged that, due to previous enmity, the petitioner along with other accused attacked the defacto complainant using deadly weapons and thereby, the deceased lost his life on the spot. Hence, the case.

3. The learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that the petitioner is an innocent person and he has been falsely implicated in this case. That apart, the petitioner has been suffering incarceration from 14.06.2022. Hence, he seeks for grant of bail to the petitioner.

4. The learned Additional Public Prosecutor would submit that the specific overt act against the petitioner is that the petitioner attacked the

deceased with knife. Hence, he vehemently opposed to grant bail to the petitioner.

5. Considering the gravity of the offence committed by the petitioner, which is serious and heinous in nature, and also considering that the petitioner has been remanded to judicial custody only on 14.06.2022, this Court is not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner at this stage.

6. Accordingly, the criminal original petition is dismissed. 11.07.2022 Sma
