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

...for the Petitioner.

Mr. Swapan Banerjee, Md. Kutubuddin.

...for the State.

1.

Heard the learned Advocates for the parties.

2.

We have considered the materials on record. Bail prayer of the petitioner was rejected on merits in June, 2023. Trial has substantially progressed since then. Offences, if proved, would attract mandatory life imprisonment.

3.

Under such circumstances, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner.

4.

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