rkd 15.12.2020 Ct. No. 28 C.R.M. 2863 of 2020 (Through Vide Conference) In Re: - An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure filed in connection with MadhyamgramP.S. Case No. 118 of 2017 dated 06/03/2017 under Sections 392/395/412 of the Indian Penal Code.

And In the matter of: - Mantu Das ....petitioner.

Mr. S. S. Saha ...for the petitioner.

Mr. A. K. Maity, Ms. M. Roy ...for the State.

Petitioner has been identified by witnesses in the course of T.I. Parade. In view of the aforesaid materials on record, we find that petitioner does not stand on the same footing with the coaccused who has been enlarged on bail. Accordingly, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner at this stage. The application for bail is, thus, rejected.

Trial court is, however, directed to conduct the trial on a day to day basis and conclude the same at an early date preferably within six months form the date fixed for recording of evidence without granting unnecessary adjournment to either of the parties.
