IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CR. REV. No.566 of 2009 MUNNA SHARMA Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 01.04.2009. The petitioner who has been declared a juvenile is in custody since 28.8.2008 in a case filed for offences under sections 302,201,120B/34 I.P.C. and 17 of the Cr L J Act. Informant alleged that the petitioner and others used to threaten that they would kill the deceased. It is further alleged that he is in association with ante social elements. It would appear from the order of the Sessions judge that witnesses have also stated his name in this regard. It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that no one has seen the occurrence and he was 15 ½ years at the time of occurrence. Learned counsel for the State submits that the petitioner has been declared a juvenile without having the opinion of the medical board. This Court for the present is not going into the question whether he is validly declared a juvenile nor not. It appears in the FIR that petitioner is in association with anti social elements. Section 12 of the Juvenile Justice Act, 2000 provides that a person may not be released if there appears reasonable ground for believing that his release is likely to bring him under the influence of any criminal or expose him to moral danger or that his release would defeat the ends of justice. In the facts and circumstances of the case, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is refused with liberty to renew the prayer for bail after six months. Shashi. (S.P.Singh,J)
