This is a petition filed under Section 439 Cr.P.C. seeking regular bail in a case registered against the petitioner vide FIR No. 104 dated 15.06.2015 under Sections 364-A, 506 & 120-B IPC at Police Station Basti Bawa Khel district Jalandhar. Allegation against the petitioner is that he demanded ransom from the complainant and took an amount of `1,75,000/-. Ransom amount of `10,00,000/- was demanded by brother of the petitioner in Thailand. On his instructions, an amount of `1,75,000/- was paid to the petitioner in Moga. Stand of the State is that there is CCTV footage of the part of ransom amount being paid to the petitioner.

Case has been called out twice since morning. Petitioner remains unrepresented.

In view of nature of allegations and gravity of offence, I am of the considered view that petitioner does not deserve the concession of bail at this stage. Dismissed. November 26, 2015 (RAJAN GUPTA) Ajay JUDGE AJAY KUMAR 2015.11.27 16:01 I attest to the accuracy and authenticity of this document
