He further contented that one of the 3 Co-accused namely Ompriya Chaturvedi has been granted bail by this from him one stick was seized and from present applicant also stick has been seized. No act has been attributed by present applicant. The prosecution has not collected any material showing the hands of the present applicant behind the crime. The present applicant has not been named in the FIR and prosecution has failed to explain as to on what ground she has been implicated in the present case. The prosecution has failed to collect any material of conspiracy between the present applicant and other co-accused persons in the case. Lastly, he contended that the applicant is in jail since 08.07.2025 and the trial will take considerable time for its conclusion, therefore, the applicant may be released on bail. 4. Learned State Counsel opposes the submission made by learned counsel for the applicant and submits that during the course of investigation, the FSL report has been obtained wherein, the human blood stain was found in the Article A/1 (Half Shirt) and blood was found in Article Z (Wooden Stick) and also in the Article A/2 (Lower) of the accused. Also, several eye witnesses have seen the applicant and the applicant has also been identified in the Test Identification Parade (T.I.P.), conducted by the concerned Police, therefore, the act committed by the applicant/accused is serious in nature, therefore, he may not be released on bail. 4 5. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the case diary. 6. Considering the facts of the case, submission made by learned counsel for the parties. From the bare perusal of the case diary, it is revealed that, sufficient grounds are being shown by the prosecution that, the accused Applicant have committed the aforesaid offence, therefore, considering the nature and gravity of the offence, granting bail to the accused/applicant does not appear to be justified. It is also pertinent to mention here that, the objects using in crime have also been seized at the instance of the accused, which prima facie, does not show any basis of innocence of the applicant/accused. Charge-sheet has been filed in the present case. 7. In view of its seriousness and after considering other circumstances, it does not seem appropriate to grant bail to this applicant/accused. Looking to the nature and gravity of the offence, this Court is of the opinion that it is not a fit case to enlarge the applicant on bail. 8. Accordingly, the bail application of the applicant filed under Section 483 of the BNSS, involved in Crime No.360/2025 registered at Police Station Simga, District Baloda-Bazar Bhatapara (C.G.), for the offence punishable under Sections 296, 351(3), 115(2), 191(2), 191(3), 109(1), 103(1), 61(2) of 5 BNS, is rejected. 9.
