AB 2143/2011 BEFORE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE K. MERUNO Heard Mr. B. Kshetri, learned counsel for the petitioners. Also heard Mr. B.S. S inha, learned Addl. Public Prosecutor, Assam. Mr. Sinha, learned Addl. P.P., as directed, has produced the case diary. By this application under 438 CrPC, the two petitioners Md. Afaj Ali and Md. Jak ir Ali are praying for pre-arrest bail as they are apprehending arrest in connec tion with Rangia P.S. Case No. 258/11 registered under Sections 366/376/506/120( B)/34 IPC. The learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the statement recorded u/s 164 CrPC which is appended as Annexure- 2 to the bail application is contradicto ry to the statement made in the FIR that the alleged offence has not been commit ted by the petitioners. The statements derived from the CD, which this Court pre sumes to be the true statements as narrated by the learned Addl. P.P., reveal th at there is clear evidence of the deep involvement of the two petitioners in the alleged offence. The sections under which the case has been registered are also serious in nature and therefore considering all aspects of the matter, this Cou rt is of the considered view that the two petitioners are not entitled to be gra nted the privilege of pre-arrest bail. In this view of the matter, this bail application stands rejected.
