The alleged offence is under Sections 120(b), 143, 147, 148 and 302 read with Section 149 IPC. The petitioners are accused Nos. 1 to 6 and 11 in the crime. 3. This petition is strongly opposed. Learned public prosecutor submitted that all the petitioners are involved in various other similar cases and this case is an off shoot of a political rivalry. Various weapons were used in the offence and the incident allegedly occurred on 1.4.2008 and the accused were arrested on different dates and different accused are in custody from 10.4.2008, 19.4.2008 and 25.4.2008 onwards. It is submitted that if bail is granted to the petitioners at this stage, their life themselves will be in danger and that other incidents of this nature and political clashes are likely to occur in the locality. 4. Learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that only one more case is registered against A1 and no other cases BA 4011/08 2 are registered against any other person. But public prosecutor has given the details of the numbers of the cases in which the petitioners are involved. 5. On hearing both sides, I am satisfied that it is not fit to grant bail to the petitioners at this stage. The petition is dismissed. K.HEMA, JUDGE csl
