matter before the appropriate police authority to prove his innocence.

¶19

Learned APP on the other hand opposes the prayer for bail submitting that the petitioner, Mukesh Kumar @Binod Kumar is/was serving as the guard of the company and he is the main assailant as per the FIR/charge-sheet. He further submits that other co-accused who earlier approached this Court in Cr. Misc. No. 63097 of 2024 (Rahul Kumar & Ors.) and Cr. Misc. No. 64866 of 2024 (Amarjeet Kumar) have already been denied bail by this Court vide an order dated 28.10.2024.

¶20

Having gone through the facts of the case as also the order-sheet of the aforesaid two bail applications, so far as the FIR is concerned, it points finger on this petitioner to be in the main culprit. He along with others assaulted the person who according to them used to take away their property in the night. The said person was tied to the pole and beaten to death. In that background, no relief can be granted, the bail application stands rejected.
