IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.11263 of 2010 GOPAL JHA Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 29-Apr-2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State. The informant has alleged that her six years old daughter fell ill and this petitioner took the responsibility of treating her and assured her that nothing will happen to the child. According to allegation the petitioner administered three injections and two tablets and also injected saline water but in course of treatment the child died. From the materials on record it appears that the petitioner does not have valid qualification to take the responsibility of treating any person. Even if there be substance in the submission that at best the offence would be causing death by negligence under Section 304A, considering that the negligence of the petitioner or his rash act has caused death of the child, this Court is not persuaded to grant the benefit of anticipatory bail. The prayer for anticipatory bail is rejected. This order shall not prejudice the case of the petitioner if he surrenders and seeks regular bail. In that event, his application for bail shall be considered expeditiously on its own merit. perwez (Shiva Kirti Singh,J.)
