Ct.No.28.

as (Rejected) C.R.M. (DB) 1960 of 2022 In Re:- An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure in connection with Daspur P. S. Case No.171 of dated 17.10.2012 under Sections 147/148/149/302/201/506 of the Indian Penal Code. In the matter of : Sankar Singh @ Babaji Singh. .... Petitioner.

Mr. Aswini Kr. Bera.

...for the Petitioner.

Ms. Amita Gaur.

...for the State.

Heard the learned Counsels appearing on behalf of the parties.

Petitioner was arrested in 2022 in connection with a criminal case registered in 2012. Statements of witnesses recorded during investigation disclose his complicity in the offence of the murder.

In view of the gravity of the offence and protracted abscondance of the petitioner, we are of the opinion that this is not a fit case to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected at this stage.
