SUMMARY The High Court of Bombay (Nagpur Bench) rejected Santosh's bail application in a murder case. Santosh was charged with conspiracy and murder under IPC Sections 203, 302, 120-B and MCOCA provisions. The court found sufficient evidence of his active involvement: witness testimony placing him at the conspiracy site hours before the murder, multiple phone calls with the main assailant on the incident day, and his alleged role instigating the killer. Considering his serious criminal history (eight registered crimes) and greater culpability than the gang leader (whose bail was rejected and upheld by Supreme Court), the court denied bail. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
