It is also stated in the status report that during investigation Gurnam Singh had produced a knife, with brown red stains on it, claiming it the weapon of offence, but according to complainant Kunwar Pal, it was not the knife, used for commission of offence. However, the said knife was taken in possession and sent for chemical analysis to State FSL. However, the said knife was taken in possession and sent for chemical analysis to State FSL. On chemical examination, it was found in State FSL that this knife was stained with blood of fowl, i.e. some bird, whereupon petitioner was again interrogated and then he had disclosed that knife used for commission of offence was buried by him under the drain of washbasin, used for cleaning utensils. Thereafter, on his identification after digging the drain, knife was recovered and after drying it, it was taken in possession and sent for chemical examination to State FSL, where blood traces were detected on this knife recovered from the drain and injuries on body of deceased were also found to be corresponding to that. 4. Petitioner is suffering charge under Section 302 IPC, which is a heinous crime, punishable with death or imprisonment for life and fine. For material placed before me, it cannot be said that exfacie no case is made out against petitioner. Learned Deputy Advocate General, under instructions, had submitted that next date in the case in the trial Court is 31.8.2020, fixed for recording of evidence. 5. Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that petitioner is only bread earner in his family, having four children, wife, parents and old grandparents and no fruitful purpose is going to be served by detaining him in custody, as there is no evidence against him to connect with the commission of alleged offence and further that investigation is complete and no recovery is to be effected from the petitioner and also that there is no previous criminal history of the petitioner and further that no motive, for commission of offence, has been disclosed in the complaint lodged against the petitioner and there was no reason for the petitioner to commit the offence and he has been falsely implicated. 6. Without going into the merits of the contentions of respective parties, considering the material placed before me and nature and gravity of offence, I find that it is not a fit case for enlarging the petitioner on bail at this stage. 6.
