17.06.2022 Sl. No.38 akd [Rejected] C. R. M. (DB) 1779 of 2022 In Re: An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure filed on 10.06.2022 in connection with Narendrapur Police Station Case No. 1135 dated 19.08.2019 under Sections 395/397/411 of the Indian Penal Code read with Sections 25/27 of the Arms Act and Section 14 of the Foreigners Act. (G.R. Case No.5437 of 2019) And In Re: Dipu Kumar @ Dipu Sharma ... ... Petitioner Ms. Swarnali Saha Mr. Sanjay Dutta ... ... for the petitioner Mr. Madhusudan Sur .. ld. Addl. Public Prosecutor Mr. Dipankar Pramanick ... ... for the State Petitioner renews his prayer for bail.

It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that he is in custody for about 1030 days. It is further submitted that co-accuseds have been enlarged on bail.

Learned advocate appearing for the State opposes the prayer for bail.

We have considered the materials on record. Petitioner was apprehended at the spot where the offence was committed. He does not stand on the same footing with co-accuseds who have been enlarged on bail. Prayer for bail of the petitioner was rejected earlier. Under such circumstances, 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.
