The petitioner seeks bail in a case instituted under sections 302 and other allied sections of Indian Penal Code alongwith section 27 of Arms Act and sections 17/18 of the CLA Act. The petitioner, as per F.I.R., belongs to a Naxalite group called C.P.I.(ML). As per allegation, he alongwith a mob arrived at the house of the informant and took possession of his son namely Shankar Sahni. Shankar Sahni was handcuffed and brought to a place where it is alleged that all the accused persons named in the F.I.R. including the petitioner indiscriminately assaulted him. The scenario painted in the FIR indicates the ghastly manner in which the deceased was done to death. The motive for the occurrence is disclosed in the FIR itself where it has been alleged that the deceased was a police informer and as such he was done to death. Counsel for the petitioner submits that apart from the informant, no other witness has supported the allegation. It has further been submitted that the petitioner is in custody since July 2006.

Having regard to the entire facts and circumstances, this Court is not inclined to admit the petitioner to bail. The application for bail stands rejected. However, if the trial of the case is not taken up on or before 31st May, 2009, the petitioner will have liberty to renew his prayer for bail. pkj (Kishore K. Mandal, J)
