IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.1896 of 2009 CHUNU RAI, son of Rajeshwar Rai, resident of village-Goria- Dera, Police Station-Bihta, District-Patna. Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 24.4.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned A.P.P. for the State. The petitioner prays for anticipatory bail in a case under Sections 342, 504,307 I.P.C. and 27 of the Arms Act. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the allegation against the petitioner is that both Chhunu Rai and Akhilesh Rai fired upon the informant while he was running away which hit him on the back of the body. It is, thus, submitted that the case against the petitioner is only of suspicion as it cannot be said with any certainty that it is the shot fired by the petitioner that had hit the informant. Learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that one of the co-accused, namely, Prabhunath Rai has been granted anticipatory bail by order dated 28.11.2008 of this Court passed in Cr.Misc. No.40174/2008. On a consideration of the facts and circumstances of the case, there being positive allegation of the petitioner also having fired at the informant along with one Akhileshwar Rai and the informant was also hit on the back and injured thereupon, this Court does not consider it a fit case for grant of anticipatory bail. The prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is, accordingly, rejected. VPS ( Ramesh Kumar Datta,J.) 2
