27.06.2022 Sl. No.23 akd [Rejected] C. R. M. (DB) 1934 of 2022 In Re: An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure filed on 17.06.2022 in connection with Krishnanagar G.R.P.S. Case No. 12 of 2021 dated 14.12.2021 under Sections 302/34 of the Indian Penal Code.

And In Re: Sudip Ghosh & Ors.

... ... Petitioners Mr. Debasis Ray Mr. Mrityunjoy Chatterjee Mr. Debapriya Majumder ... ... for the petitioners Md. Sabir Ahmed Mr. A. A. Alamgir Ms. Riya Das ... ... for the de-facto complainant Mr. Ranabir Roy Chowdhury Mr. Mainak Gupta ... ... for the State Petitioners renew their prayer for bail.

It is submitted on behalf of the petitioners that they are in custody for about 180 days.

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

Learned advocate appearing for the de-facto complainant also opposes the prayer for bail.

We have considered the materials on record. Statements of witnesses including Test Identification Parade report show petitioners were identified as the persons who assaulted the victim and threw him out of the compartment. In view of the prima facie involvement of the petitioners therein and gravity of the offence, we are of the opinion this is not a fit case to grant bail to the petitioners at this stage.

The application for bail is thus rejected.
