The above bail application has been posted before me as per order dated 23.04.2024 by another learned single Judge relying on the judgments of the Apex Court in Rajpal v. State of Rajasthan, 2023 Live Law SC 1066 and Kusha Duruka v. State of Odisha, 2024 (1) KHC 389. But when the matter was taken up for consideration the learned standing counsel for the respondent would submit that the petitioner, who is accused no.13, has earlier approached this Court filing B.A.No.426 of 2023 along with other accused persons and the same was rejected as per order dated 16.02.2023. Therefore, Registry may place this matter before the learned Judge who passed orders on B.A.No.426 of 2023.
Post on 23.05.2024 along with B.A.No.2008 of 2024.
