20.12.2021 cm/ct 28 C.R.M. 8335 of 2021 sl no. 145 In Re : An application for bail under section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure in connection with Palashipara P.S. Case No.248 of 2020 dated 08.09.2020 under Sections 447/326A/307/34 of the Indian Penal Code & Adding Section 302 of the Indian Penal Code.

And Rejected In Re : Jamu Sk.

..... petitioner Mr. Asraf Mandal ...... for the petitioner Ms. A. Sinha Mr. Pinak Kr. Mitra ...... for the State Petitioner is in custody for 438 days. It is submitted that his name does not transpire in the First Information Report. We have considered materials on record. Statement of the victim implicates the petitioner as one of the persons who was instrumental in throwing acid on her. She ultimately succumbed to her injuries. In view of the prima facie involvement of the petitioner in the alleged crime and as the petitioner does not stand on the same footing with co-accused Jahangir Sk., who has been granted bail, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. The application for bail is thus rejected.
