Petitioner/s Versus 1. The State Of Bihar .... .... Opposite Party/s ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ASHWANI KUMAR SINGH ORAL ORDER 2 05-04-2012 Heard learned counsels for petitioners and the State. The petitioners seek bail in connection with a case instituted for the offence punishable under [STATUTE] claiming themselves to be of clean antecedent. Five persons including the two petitioners are alleged to have caught hold of the deceased when co-accused Binod Singh is alleged to have shot dead the deceased Lal Babu Rai @ Lala Rai. The contention is of false implication due to village politics. It has also been contended that it is highly improbable that five persons would have put their life to danger by catching hold of the deceased when another co-accused is alleged to have fired upon the victim. Be that as it may, considering the facts and circumstances of the case the petitioners named above are directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs.10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Rohtas at Patna High Court Cr.Misc.
