6 22/04/2011 I.A. No. 898 of 2011

Heard learned counsel for the appellant and

learned APP for the State.

This interlocutory application has been filed

for grant of bail to the appellant.

Earlier prayer for bail of the appellant was

rejected vide order dated 11.3.2010.

A person staying in one of the hotels at Patna

was killed and his belongings including a wrist watch

were looted. In course of investigation appellant’s name

came on the basis of confessional statement of co-

accused Franki Das- a waiter of the hotel. The wrist

watch of the deceased was seized on the basis of

confessional statement of co-accused from the

appellant. That wrist watch was put on test

identification parade and the same was identified by the

wife of the deceased.

No doubt the appellant is in custody since

6.12.2006 but considering the allegation and evidence

against him, we are not inclined to take a different view

from the earlier.

Accordingly, prayer for bail of the petitioner is

again rejected.

I. A. No. 898 of 2011 stands dismissed.
