AB 189/2010 BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE IA ANSARI This is an application made under Section 438 Cr.P.C. seeking pre-arrest bail by the petitioner, namely, Firoj Ali, in connection with Dispur Police Sta tion Case No. 811/2010, under Section 498 (A)/34 IPC. Perused the above application and materials on record. Heard Mr. BP Sinha, learned counsel for the petitioner, and Mr. K Munir, learned Additional Public Prosecutor, Assam. Petitioner’s earlier application for pre-arrest bail was rejected by order, date d 04-08-2010, passed in Bail Application No. 3348/2010, on perusal of the case d iary. No new ground could be submitted on behalf of the petitioner except the fa ct that he is a Grade-IV employee. The ground that the petitioner is a Grade-IV employee is, by itself, not sufficient to consider him fit for being granted the benefit of pre-arrest bail, when his application for pre-arrest bail was earlie r considered and rejected on the basis of the incriminating materials available against him in the case diary, while, however, allowing others of his family the benefit of pre-arrest bail. In view of the above and in the interest of justice, the prayer for pre-arrest b ail, made by the petitioner, is hereby rejected. The bail application shall stand disposed of in terms of the above obser vations and directions.
