4. IO has submitted a bail objection in which the he has strongly objected to grant of bail.
5. The case diary also indicates significant investigation so far. It appears that the investigation has revealed sufficient incriminating materials against the present petitioner indicating his involvement in forgery of documents regarding transaction pertaining to the stolen of two wheeler. The investigation has also found that he also produced two wrong photographs in the name of the actual owner Apurba Kumar Barman. IO contended that investigation is continuing into whether there is any network of individuals involved in this alleged offenses.
6. In view of these materials and contentions of the IO, I am of the considered view that at this stage it may not be an appropriate case for granting pre-arrest bail since investigation is still in progress.
