AB 1531/2011 BEFORE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE A.C.UPADHYAY Heard learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and Mr. BS Si nha, learned PP, Assam. This is an application u/s 438 CrPC seeking pre-arrest bail on b ehalf of the petitioner in connection with CID Case No. 36/11 u/s 292 IPC r/w 67 A of I.T.Act, 2000. Learned PP by producing the case diary apprised the Court about the progress of investigation of the case. Large number of video CDs and DVDs /VCDs kept for copying of po rnographic videos or pirated films were found from the stall and accordingly pol ice seized the articles and also arrested the salesman Hasen Farukh. The petiti oner is the owner of the stall. On perusal of the case diary and materials on record, it appears that the petitioner is running the stall by obtaining Municipal licence and the stall is managed by his manager, Hasen Farukh who was arrested by the police. On careful perusal of the materials on record, it appears that there are no suff icient incriminating materials warranting custodial interrogation of the petitio ner in connection with the case. Even if the petitioner is extended the benefit of pre-arrest bail, it would not adversely affect further investigation of the case since the articles have already been seized by the police. In view of above, the interim pre-arrest bail granted by this Co urt on 6.6.11 is hereby made absolute. Bail application stands disposed of.
