IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.36044 of 2009 RAJEEV KUMAR S/O BANDHU SINGH VILL- DUMRI, P.S- PAKRIBARAWAN, DISTT- NAWADAH --------- Petitioner Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR --------- Opp. Party ----------- 2 30.10.2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State. The innocence of the petitioner as projected by his counsel in a case registered under Section 366/498 of the Indian Penal Code does not get support even from the statement under Section 164 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the alleged victim girl. In her statement, she has straightway accused the petitioner to have taken her to Nasik and abandoned her in the midway and forcing her to get married to one Bittu Singh. While this Court would not like to make any comment on that part of the defence sought to be developed by the accused persons by taking recourse to 164 statement of the victim girl which may lead the victim girl herself to be made an accused in view of her admitted first marriage subsisting with the informant when she is said to have married Bittu Singh, this much 2 becomes clear that the role of the petitioner was not very fair. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner, namely, Rajeev Kumar is rejected and he may renew his prayer for bail after completing one year of judicial custody. Rsh (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
