In the matter of:- Ismail Mallick petitioner
Md. Asraf Ali,
Mr. Sankar Banerjee for the petitioner
Mr. Navail De for the State
CRM No. 4149/17
Mr. Saswata Gopal Mukherjee, Ld. P.P., Mr. Partha Pratim Das CRM No. 4151/17 Mr. Saswata Gopal Mukherjee, Ld. P.P., Mr. Pradipta Ganguly CRM No. 4157/17 Mr. Atif Ahmed Siddique CRM No. 4158/17 Since the petitioner is common in all the aforesaid bail applications, the same are taken up for hearing together and are disposed of by a common order.
2The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that in the first three cases he was named in the FIR and not named in the last one. He further submits that he has been falsely implicated.
On the other hand, from the side of the State prayer for bail is vehemently opposed and it is submitted this is a communal violation and petitioner's direct involvement and participation in the commission of the offence has been clearly transpired from the statement of the eye-witnesses to the occurrence. According to those eyewitnesses, he played active role in the commission of the offence, may be that in one case, he has not been named in the FIR. It is further submitted in connection with Sankrail P.S. Case No. 15/17 from his possession huge explosives were recovered.
Considering the nature and seriousness of the allegations and the gravity of the offence and for the sake of integrity of our country, we are of the opinion, this is not at all a fit case for bail.
Accordingly, the application for bail stands rejected.
