    Case Summary: BA 3397/2025 The Bombay High Court dismissed the bail application of Akhilendra Pratap Sureshsingh (Accused No. 23), charged with harboring assailants in the October 2024 murder of Baba Siddiqui in Bandra. The court found prima facie evidence of the applicant's involvement through co-accused confessional statements (admissible under MCOCA Section 18), call records between the applicant and co-accused, and their joint arrest in Uttar Pradesh, establishing sufficient material linking him to the organized crime conspiracy. The court rejected arguments that mere village acquaintance and phone exchanges were innocent, noting the serious nature of the harboring charge (punishable up to life imprisonment) and a separate POCSO offense, finding no bail conditions under MCOCA Section 21(4) were satisfied.
