20.02.2024 tkm/ct 28 C.R.M. (DB) 507 of 2024 sl no. 36 In Re : An application for bail under section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure in connection with Naihati GRPS Case No. 38 of 2013 dated 25.9.2013 under sections 302/326/307/34 IPC read with sections 25/27 of the Arms Act And In Re : Chotelal Yadav @ Chhote lal Yadav ........ petitioner Mr. Arunava Ganguly ...... for the petitioner Mr. M Sur Ms. Purnima Ghosh ...... for the State

1. Petitioner was on bail earlier. He misused his liberty and absconded. Thereafter he was rearrested. Offences if proved would attract mandatory life imprisonment.

2. In view of the gravity of the offence and as there are every likelihood that the petitioner if on bail may again abscond, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner at this stage.

3. Accordingly, prayer for bail is rejected.

4. Trial court is requested to expedite the trial and conclude the same at an early date.
