On basis of recovery of a dead body on Link Road, Bandikui- Jaipur Express Way connecting to Delhi-Mumbai Express Way, a case is registered and during investigation police has found that deceased was Ashanand @ Pandey who was murdered on highway when he was accompanied by present applicant Dharmender and Ram Sunder. Ram Sunder has fired a shot upon him and then the body is thrown on highway. The motive behind murder is illicit relation between present applicant and Shweta @ Shilpi (wife of deceased). 8. The facts and the material indicate that the alleged offence are of serious nature and role attributed to applicant is prima facie sufficient to consider complicity of applicant in the crime.

Considering the gravity of allegations and overall facts and circumstances of the case, it is appropriate to dismiss the bail application of the applicant accused at this stage.
