17.06.2022 Sl. No.37 akd [Rejected] C. R. M. (DB) 1776 of 2022 In Re: An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure filed on 13.06.2022 in connection with Kultali Police Station Case No.

of dated 24.01.2020 under Sections 302/201/120B/115/34 of the Indian Penal Code. (G.R. Case No.505 of 2020) And In Re: Mijanur Mondal ... ... Petitioner Mr. Joy Chakraborty Mr. Debarshi Brahma Mr. Sandip Dinda ... ... for the petitioner Mr. S. S. Imam Mr. S. Kundu ... ... for the State It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that he is in custody for about 870 days. It is further submitted that the petitioner is the husband of the victim lady.

Learned advocate appearing for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits that the victim and her sister had gone to receive maintenance from the petitioner-husband. Thereafter, they were murdered. Offending weapon was recovered from the possession of the petitioner.

We have considered the materials on record. Statements of witnesses and other documents show the victim and her sister had gone to collect maintenance from the petitioner-husband. Thereafter, they were murdered. The aforesaid clinching materials implicate the petitioner-husband in the alleged crime. He does not stand on the same footing with the co-accused i.e. cousin-in-law of the victim lady. In view of the aforesaid incriminating facts and gravity of the offence, we are of

the opinion this is not a fit case to grant bail to the petitioner at this stage.

The application for bail is thus rejected.
