Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits, petitioner is a police constable of the Special Task Force who was associated with the offence. He is the master mind in the alleged commission of offence. The offence was committed at the heart of the city and a sum of Rs. 2 Crores were robbed from the employee of Forex Company who was plying in a taxi after forcefully boarding the taxi, taking 2 them to the nearest destination towards the railway tracks and thereafter fleeing away with cartons of money on the other side of the railway tracks. Police authorities had to put in efforts for investigating and unearthing the truth. Subsequently, the complicity of the present petitioner surfaced. Having regard to the complicity of the present petitioner is, as a master mind who instructed his relevant sources for committing the offence, I am of the opinion this is not a fit case for granting bail.
