IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.36445 of 2010 HARI LAL GOUR @ HARI LAL GOND Versus STATE OF BIHAR 03/ 28.1.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned P.P. for the State. Petitioner is languishing in jail custody since 9.8.2010 in connection with Thakaraha P.S. Case no. 5/2009 registered under sections 302,201/34 of the IPC. Admittedly, petitioner is father-in-law of the deceased and as per prosecution case, deceased was killed within the four walls of the house of the petitioner. Subsequently, dead body of the deceased was recovered from a pond having some incised injuries on her neck and chest. The contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that no specific overt-act has been attributed against the petitioner and having similar allegation female inmates of the said house have already been granted privilege of bail. He also points out that the petitioner is old man aged about 75 years. Considering the aforesaid submissions as well as materials available on the case diary, particularly, this aspect of the matter that no specific overt-act has been attributed against the petitioner, I think it proper to grant privilege of bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, petitioner Hari Lal Gour @ Hari Lal Gond is directed to be released on bail in connection with Thakaraha P.S. Case no. 5 of 2009 on furnishing bail bond of Rs 10,000/- with two sureties of the like - 2 - amount each to the satisfaction of the Addl.
