AB 876/2011 BEFORE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE A.C. UPADHYAY This is the second pre-arrest bail application submitted on behalf of Ra fique Khan and Smti Jasina Begum @ Bhoni in connection with Dibrugarh Police Sta tion Case No. 454/2010 registered under Section 307/302 IPC. The earlier applica tion filed on behalf of the petitioners above named u/s 438 CrPC was rejected by this Court. I have heard Mr. I. Choudhury, learned counsel appearing on behalf of th e petitioner and learned Addl. Public Prosecutor representing the state responde nts. FIR reveals that on 24.8.2010 at about 5.30 P.M. the petitioners above n amed together with others had heated arguments with Smti Farida Begum @Boby rega rding family property i.e. LIC policy, bank account and land documents. At that time the accused petitioners allegedly caused physical and mental torture and at tempted to kill her by putting her on fire. Thereafter, she was immediately shif ted to Assam Medical College Hospital, Dibrugarh for treatment where she succumb ed to her injuries. Learned Public Prosecutor by producing the case diary has apprised the Court in respect of the statement of the eye witnesses to the occurrence and the progress of the investigation made by the police in connection with this case. Materials on record reflect that the witnesses have indicated involvement of the petitioners in the alleged crime. On perusal of the materials on record and the statements of the witnesse s recorded by the police during investigation, it transpires that there are suff icient incriminating materials warranting custodial interrogation of the petitio ners in connection with this case. Considering the nature and gravity of the offence alleged and also consi dering the materials on record this Court is of the considered view that this is not a fit case to extend the privilege of pre-arrest bail to the petitioners. Accordingly, the prayer of pre-arrest bail submitted on behalf of the pe titioners stands rejected.
