In the matter of : Suvan Sk @ Raju Sk.

... Petitioner.

Mr. Angshuman Chakraborty, Mr. S. S. Saha.

...for the Petitioner.

Mr. Madhusudan Sur, ld. A.P.P., Mr. Manoranjan Mahata.

...for the State.

Petitioner is in custody for 408 days. It is submitted there is no direct evidence to the murder. He prays for bail. Learned Advocate for the State opposes the bail prayer. We have considered the materials on record. Statements of witnesses show petitioner was last seen with the victim. CCTV footage, hotel register and other contemporaneous materials corroborate such fact.

In view of the aforesaid incriminating materials and gravity of offence, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner.

Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected.
