Case No.324 of 2013 registered for alleged commission of offences punishable under Sections 294, 509, 506 and 307 of the I.P.C. read with Section 9(b) of the Indian Explosives Act and Section 3(1)(x) of the S.C. & S.T. (PoA) Act, has filed this petition for his release on pre-arrest bail. 3.

// 2 // 4.

It appears that the Petitioner had approached this Court earlier vide ABLAPL No.24990 of 2013 and this Court on 8th January, 2014 wherein he was directed to surrender before the court below, but instead of complying with the same, he has again approached this Court by filing ABLAPL No.14840 of 2021 for pre-arrest bail suppressing the same and, as such, this Court refused to release him on pre-arrest bail imposing a cost of Rs.5,000/-. But, he has again approached this Court by filing the instant bail application seeking pre-arrest bail. 5.

No doubt, in this bail application, certificate has been given regarding earlier filing of the bail applications. But, on the aforesaid facts and situation, this Court is not inclined to entertain the prayer for pre-arrest bail of the Petitioner afresh reviewing the earlier order.

6.

Accordingly, the prayer for pre-arrest bail of the Petitioner stands rejected.
