IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.35963 of 2008 RANBIR YADAV Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3. 2.12.2008 Heard Mr. Mritunjay Kumar, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr. B. Ram , learned A.P.P. The allegation against the petitioner is that he fired a shot into the belly of the informant causing an injury to him. The contention is that the witnesses have stated that it was the petitioner who had fired the shot and that the petitioner is in custody since 16.1.2008. The informant in his further statement has supported his story. The other witnesses appeared not as eye witnesses directly to the occurrence but have stated that the accused persons came and so as to realizing rangdari amount, shot and injured Sajjan Kumar. Considering that the injured has named the petitioner as his assailant and considering that doctor has found the injury caused by firing shot and it was upto cavity deep, I am not inclined to direct release of the petitioner from custody. The petition is dismissed. sudip ( Dharnidhar Jha,J )
