She further submits that theaccused petitioner is in custody since for aconsiderable period and in the meantimeinvestigation process has been ended bysubmitting charge-sheet by the prosecutingagency.

Learned Counsel appearing for the Statesubmits that there are sufficient incriminatingmaterials gathered by the Investigating Agencyagainst the accused and the offence involved inthis case is serious in nature.

We have considered the submissionsadvanced by both the parties. We have alsoconsidered the materials available in this caserecord. In view of the heinousness of the offenceand the diabolical manner by which the allegedoffence was committed, we are not inclined toenlarge the accused on bail.

Therefore, the application for bail isrejected.
