10.11.2021 Serial no.12 Ct. No. 29 Aloke (Through Video Conference) CRM 6765 of 2021 In re : An Application for Bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure filed on 28.09.2021 in connection with Bhowanipur P.S. Case No. 141 of 2016 dated 27.04.2016 under Sections 120B/201/363/365/366A/370(5)/376/419/420 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 4/17 of the POCSO Act. -AndIn the matter of : Keshab Das ... Petitioner Mr. Amitabha Karmakar, Advocate Mr. Arup Kr. Bhowmick, Advocate ... For the Petitioner Mr. Rudradipta Nandy, Advocate ... For the State Petitioner renews the prayer for grant of bail. Learned Advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody in excess of 4 years 10 months. Learned Advocate appearing for the State submits that this is the fifth application for grant of bail.

Considering that there is hardly any material change in circumstances from the earlier order of rejection of bail and considering the fact that the trial commenced and is in progress, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. CRM 6765 of 2021 is dismissed.
