IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr. Misc. No.16600 of 2009 TUNTUN RAI, son of Uttim Roy, resident of village- Ram Nagar, Police Station- Chapra Mufassil, District- Chapra (Saran) …Petitioner Versus STATE OF BIHAR …OP ----------- 3/ 18.08.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner seeks bail in a case instituted for the offence under section 302 and other allied sections of the Indian Penal Code and section 3(x) of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. Taking into consideration the fact that the assault took place because the informant refused to work for the accused persons and for this reason, the husband of the informant was assaulted on account of which he later died, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner even though there is no specific overt act against him. However, he may renew his prayer for bail after having remained in custody for one year. JA/- (Anjana Prakash, J.)
