The charge-sheet was submitted on 16th June 2000. Your petitioner’s prayer for bail was rejected by Mr. JM, Sub-divisional Judicial Magistrate at ………… on 10th July 2000. Being aggrieved by the order of the Learned Magistrate refusing to grant bail to your petitioner, he begs to move your Honour for bail on the following amongst other grounds.

(ii)                 That no incriminating article was found in the house of your petitioner on a search by the police, and that he was arrested on mere suspicion and that your petitioner is perfectly innocent of the charge.

(iii)                That no inmate of the house of ZEE identified your petitioner in the identification parade held inside the Alipore Jail by Mr. M, a Second Class Magistrate.

(iv)                That the accused has a Ration Shop at …………………… and that he resides there with his wife and children.

2.       Your petitioner states that there is no possibility of your petitioner escaping or absconding during trial or otherwise.

3.       Your petitioner has a good defence and the prosecution case is based on false allegations.

4.       That your petitioner is willing to furnish proper security for appearance in the court to take his trial.

5.       In view of the aforesaid your petitioner states that the bail be granted to your petitioner as prayed for herein in the interest of justice.

Your petitioner therefore prays that Your Honour may be pleased to call for the records and issue notice to the Public Prosecutor and on hearing the parties be graciously pleased to pass an order directing release of your petitioner on bail.

And your petitioner, as in duty bound, shall ever pray.
