1. Petitioner contends he was not named in the FIR and has been falsely implicated on mere suspicion. He is in custody for 177 days. He prays for bail.

2. Learned counsel for the State opposes the bail prayer.

3. We have considered the materials on record. Victim was an employee of a liquor shop and had been attacked by miscreants who fired at him and took away cash. In the course of incident another person was injured. Aadhaar card of the injured person was recovered from the possession of the petitioner.

4. In view of the gravity of offence and incriminating materials on record, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner at this stage.

5. Accordingly, prayer for bail is rejected. (Gaurang Kanth, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
