39 The prosecution has to show that there is prima facie material available to negative the bail plea and the activities committed by the petitioner would attract Section 43D(5) and proviso thereat. In the case on hand, a perusal of the case diary shows that there is no specific overt act against the petitioner and only a cell phone, two pen drives (from the residence of petitioner) and long knives and axe (from the farm house of petitioner) were recovered. The contents of pen drives are not known. Charge sheet as regards the petitioner is yet to be filed. Further, the trial court in its impugned order has categorically said that the question of absconding of the petitioner may not arise since he is an Advocate. All this put together, if the eight factors mentioned in Hussainara Khatton case (to determine whether the accused has his roots in the community which would deter him from fleeing) which were reiterated in Antil case are applied, this Court is of the view that a finding has to be rendered in favour of the petitioner regarding bail plea.
