AB 3373/2011 BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE B.P. KATAKEY Heard Mr. Baruah, learned counsel for the applicant and Mr. Sinha, learned PP, A ssam. The applicant, namely Md. Ainuddin Laskar, is seeking the privilege of pre-arres t bail under Section 438 Cr. P.C. apprehending arrest in connection with Nagaon P.S. Case No.1360/2011 (G.R. No.3132/2011) registered under Sections 354/420/506 IPC. I have perused the case diary, as produced by Mr. Sinha, learned PP, Assam, whic h reveals sufficient materials against the applicant. It also appears from the materials available in the case diary that for the purpose of investigation, the applicant is required to be taken into custody and hence the privilege of pre-a rrest bail cannot be granted to the applicant, as it will hamper the investigati on. That being the position, the prayer for pre-arrest bail stands rejected.
