    Summary: The High Court of Chhattisgarh dismissed a bail application (MCRC No. 2495/2026) filed by accused Devesh Suman @ Nikku after criticizing it as "bench hunting"—an attempt to avoid a judge who had rejected a related revision petition. The court condemned the conduct and subsequently transferred the case to another appropriate bench. On the final hearing (13.05.2026), after counsels withdrew their vakalatnama, the matter was adjourned for 10 days to allow the State to file objections regarding the applicant's criminal antecedents. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
