IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.11251 of 2011 SACHIDANAND SINGH & ANR. Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 02. 27.04.2011 Petitioners are apprehending their arrest in a case registered under Sections 302, 379, 380, 120B of the I.P.C. The accusation against the entire family of the petitioners is to assault the victim as a result of which he died on 04.02.2010 for which the complaint was filed on 26.04.2010 which ultimately got registered as police case on 15.05.2010. It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioners that not only the accusation is absurd since accusation is to kill his own son-in-law but it appears that the victim died on 04.02.2010 due to illness and his ritual was performed at that point of time and a certificate to that effect has been issued by the Panchayat Mukhiya. It is further submitted that since petitioners refused to return certain animal as demanded by the informant, hence the present case has been lodged. The unexplained delayed in lodging the complaint clouds the bona fide of the accusation. Considering the aforesaid facts, let the petitioners namely 1. Sachidanand Singh 2. Nisha Devi, 2 in the event of their arrest or surrender before the Court below within a period of 12 weeks from today, be released on anticipatory bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/-(ten thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Samastipur in connection with Tajpur (Bangara) P.S. Case No. 157 of 2010. Shageer ( Dinesh Kumar Singh, J)
