03.04.2023 ct 28/tkm C.R.M. (DB) 1326 of 2023 sl no.56 In Re : An application for bail under section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure in connection with Hanskhali P.S, case no. 171 of 2022 dated 1.3.2022 under sections 376(D) IPC And In Re : Bappa Biswas & Anr.

........ petitioners Mr. S Majumder ...... for the petitioner Mr. Swapan Banerjee Mr. Suman De ...... for the State Heard learned lawyers for the parties.

We have considered the materials on record. Case involves gang rape of the victim. Bail prayer of the petitioner was rejected earlier on merits. Evidence of the victim implicates the petitioner in the crime.

Under such circumstances and in view of gravity of the offence, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner at this stage.

Accordingly, prayer for bail is rejected.
