Shaikh Afzal Alias Babalu Shaikh Hanif vs State thr. Chandwad Police Station — 66/2026

The court rejected the bail application of Shaikh Afzal @ Bablu Shaikh Hanif, who was arrested for transporting 24 cattle in cruel conditions for slaughter, finding the offense serious with prima facie evidence of his active participation and willful involvement. The court held the application premature, noting that investigation is ongoing, material evidence is yet to be collected, and two cattle died due to the cruel treatment, warranting his continued detention until police complete their investigation and file the charge-sheet.
