Summary: The Special Judge at Solapur rejected the bail application of Suraj Bhaiyya Gundappa Surwase (accused No.3) in a case involving charges under BNS sections 309(4), 351(2) r/w 3(5) and Maharashtra Control of Organized Crime Act sections 3(1)(ii), 3(2), and 3(4). The applicant was arrested on 17.03.2025 for his alleged involvement in an armed robbery where the complainant was robbed of a mobile phone and Rs.3,600 at knifepoint. The court found prima facie evidence of the applicant's involvement, including his identification by the victim in a test identification parade, seizure of weapons and vehicles, and evidence linking him to an organized crime syndicate. The court rejected the applicant's arguments regarding false implication and lack of eyewitnesses, holding that the seriousness of the offense and specific allegations precluded bail.
