It is contended by learned counsel for the petitioner that initially he was arrested on 18.11.2015, but later on he was released on interim bail by the trial Court on 10.3.2016 till the receipt of report from the Forensic Science Laboratory ('FSL'–for short) and thereafter he was again sent to jail on 14.9.2017 and since then he is in custody. It is further contended that out of total nine prosecution witnesses, only one has been examined. 3. On the other hand learned State counsel has opposed the bail application and prayed for dismissal of the same. 4. Heard both side and perused the paper-book. 5.
