The petitioner, who was arrested and remanded to judicial custody on 02.09.2022 for the offences punishable under Sections 294(b), 341, 420 & 506(ii) of IPC r/w Section 27(1) of Arms Act, in Crime No.564 of 2022, on the file of the respondent police, seeks bail.

2. The case of the prosecution is that the second accused is liable to pay a sum of Rs.8,25,00,000/- to the de-facto complainant. When the defacto complainant asked to repay the said amount, the second accused had sent the rowdy elements/accused 1, 3 & 4 to threaten de-facto complainant with the pistol to evade the repayment of the said amount. Hence the complaint.

3. The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner would submit that this is the second application for bail. He would also submit that it is a put up case against him. Therefore, he prays for grant of bail to the petitioner.
