It is contended there is no direct evidence connecting him with the murder. He prays for bail.

Learned lawyer for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits incriminating articles were recovered from the petitioner. They were last seen with the victim. Bail prayer of co-accused has been rejected earlier.

We have considered the materials on record. Incriminating articles were recovered from the petitioner. They were last seen with the victim. Bail prayer of co-accused has been rejected earlier. Under such circumstances, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner at this stage.

Accordingly, the prayer for bail is rejected. (Ajay Kumar Gupta, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
