IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.1200 of 2011 SANTOSH SHARMA Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 02. 11.02.2011 Petitioner is apprehending his arrest in a case registered under Sections 147, 148, 149, 323, 333, 337, 307, 353, 427, 435, 375, 341, 342 of the I.P.C. and Section ¾ of the Public Property Damage Act. It is alleged that in protest to the murder of two persons the public obstructed the traffic, pelted stones and set ablaze the police jeep. It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that the protest was made by the entire area but since petitioner happened to be the Pramukh of the area, he was made an accused as a person who was leading the mob. I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner but considering the circumstantial background in which the occurrence took place, it is a good ground for grant of regular bail. Let learned Court below pass appropriate orders, preferably on the same day, if the petitioner surrenders within a period of four weeks from today. Let the order of this Court be 2 communicated through FAX to the learned Court below at the cost of the petitioner. Shageer ( Dinesh Kumar Singh,J.)
