Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.14274 of 2012 (2) dt.04-04-2012 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Criminal Miscellaneous No.14274 of 2012 ====================================================== Sita Ram Mahto son of Shri Deo Narayan Mahto, resident of village- Shankarpur, P.S.-Hasanpur, District- Samastipur. .... .... Petitioner/s Versus The State Of Bihar .... .... Opposite Party/s ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ASHWANI KUMAR SINGH ORAL ORDER 2 04-04-2012 Heard learned counsels for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner seeks anticipatory bail in connection with a case instituted for the offence punishable under [STATUTE] and Section 3(i)(x) of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989. This is third attempt for grant of anticipatory bail on behalf of the petitioner. Twice earlier prayer for bail of the petitioner was heard by this court. When the court was not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner on both the occasions leave was sought to withdraw the application for anticipatory bail. Leave was granted and, accordingly, the applications were dismissed as withdrawn. It appears from the first information report that on 16.9.2010 eight F.I.R. named accused persons including the Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.14274 of 2012 (2) dt.04-04-2012 petitioner entered the house of the informant Rinku Devi, assaulted her as well as her husband causing fracture injury to the husband of the informant. It is submitted that the parties have compromised the case outside the court. The offence is not compoundable. Considering the nature of allegation, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the same is dismissed. Md.S./- (Ashwani Kumar Singh, J)
