Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and also the fact that the petitioner has allegedly committed serious offence and the investigation is at preliminary stage, if the petitioner is enlarged on bail at this point of time, there is likelihood of the petitioner indulging in activities which would be prejudicial for investigation, this Court is not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. 6.
