… …Petitioner
Mr. Rudradipta Nandy, Advocate
… … For the State
None appears for the petitioner.
Learned Advocate appearing for State draws the attention to the earlier order of rejection dated December 23, 2021 passed in CRM 4984 of 2021.
Considering the gravity of the offence and the involvement of the petitioner therein and considering the fact that there is hardly any material change in circumstances subsequent to the earlier order of rejection dated December 23, 2021, we are unable to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.
CRM (A) 132 of 2022 is rejected.
