IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.43705 of 2009 MISHRI MAHTO @ MISHRI LAL MAHTO Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2/ 10.12.2009 Heard. Earlier the prayer for bail of the petitioner was rejected by a Bench of this Court in Cr. Misc. No. 51685 of 2007. Allegation against the petitioner is that he wanted to marry another lady which was resisted by the informant, his wife. The lady was brutally assaulted by the present petitioner. Not only that the petitioner picked up a utensil, containing boiling water and threw it on a little child who was born out of the wedlock of the petitioner and the victim lady. The child is the deceased. Learned counsel for the petitioner has very fervently appealed to my conscience to be generous and magnanimous to the petitioner whose prayer was rejected, as indicated above, who is in custody since 27.07.2008. But considering the acts of the petitioner and the reason therefor I am not inclined to re-consider the prayer for bail. However, it should be a matter of concerned for the Additional District and Sessions Judge, 3rd Court, Madhubani to expedite the hearing of the trial in Sessions Trial No. 797 of 2007 in which the petitioner is in custody. The petition is rejected with the above observation. ( Dharnidhar Jha, J ) BTiwary/
