No. 537/2024. 3. The petitioner earlier approached this Court for his pre-arrest bail in said Sapatgram P.S. Case No. 58/2024 and the Court after perusal of the relevant case diary by order dated 25.03.2025 passed in A.B. No. 648/2024 rejected the pre-arrest bail of the petitioner. 4. The contention of the petitioner herein is that in the meanwhile other accused persons of the case have been released on bail and further, the arms involved in the case was recovered from a different area (pond near a paddy field) without any ammunitions in it and that the petitioner is no way connected with the case. 5. Mr. B Sharma, learned APP, Assam has placed the case diary of Sapatgram P.S. Case No. 58/2024 before the Court today. 6. From the records of the case, it is seen that accused persons of the case who were already arrested were released on bail. 7. On perusal of the case diary, it is seen that there are sufficient incriminating materials against the petitioner available in the case diary with regard to his involvement in the alleged crime. 8. The investigation of the case is still going on and some of the accused persons of the case including the present petitioner are yet to be apprehended. 9. Finding such incriminating materials in the case diary against the petitioner in the case diary, this Court is of the opinion that this is not a fit case to grant pre-arrest bail to the petitioner in said Sapatgram P.S. Case No. 58/2024. Page No.# 3/3 10. Accordingly, this pre-arrest bail application of the petitioner, Shahjahan Ali, son of Akbor Ali in Sapatgram P.S. Case No. 58/2024, stands rejected. 11. Return the case diary. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
