IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CR. REV. No.973 of 2008 NAVNEET KUMAR Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3. 10.11.2008. Heard. The petitioner is a juvenile aged about 17 & ½ years and is accused in a case registered under sections 364, 377, 302/120B of the I.P.C. On perusal of the fardbeyan, it would appear that the nature of the case is serious and heinous and minor boy aged about 7 years was not only sodomized but was also murdered thereafter. The case diary has been received. On perusal of the entire case diary, it would appear that this petitioner played active role in commission of the offence. One of the keys of the room in which the dead body was found, was recovered from possession of this petitioner. Having regard to the nature of the offence and material available in the case diary as also age of the petitioner, I am of the view that the release of the petitioner on bail would defeat the ends of justice. - 2 - N.H./ Accordingly, this revision is rejected and the order of the lower court is hereby confirmed.
