applicant, the charge-sheet has already
been filed.

has no previous criminal history and since
the charge-sheet has already been filed,
there is no need of custodial interrogation of
the present applicant. Apart from this,

7. On the other side, learned counsel for
the complainant as well as learned counsel
for the State vehemently opposed the bail
application and submits that the applicant
is the person, from whose possession, at
about 16 Nos. of SIMS, two GSM land lines
and eight boxes of GSM land lines were
recovered. He also submits that the
mobiles, which was having by the applicant,
contained all the messages of the

the complainant, who is the victim, has
been cheated by them.

counsel for the applicant, the counsel for
the State as well as the counsel for the

other documents placed on record including
the counter-affidavit, in which the
statement of the SI Kuldeep Tamta, the
Statement of the constable Sohan Badoni
and the constable Subham Chaudhary have
been enclosed, it reveals that the present
applicant is involved in an organized crime,
which is apparently a very serious issue for
the society, and the investigation against
the rest of the accused is still going on and
if at this stage, the applicant is enlarged on
bail, there may be possibility that the
applicant, in any manner, may influence the
investigation, therefore, this Court is of the
view that the applicant is not entitled for
bail.
9. Accordingly, the bail application is
rejected.
