IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.3326 of 2010 RAMPRIT PASWAN son of late Rameshwar Paswan, resident of village Banvaripur, P.S. Wena, District Nalanda… …Petitioner Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR… …OPPOSITE PARTY For the Petitioner: Mr. D.K. Sinha, Sr. Advocate Mr. Sudish Kumar, Advocate For the State: Mr. Nitynand Tiwari, APP For the Informant: Mr. Anjani Kumar, Advocate ----------- 3 26.03.2010 Heard learned senior counsel for the petitioner, the State and the informant. The petitioner seeks bail in a case registered under section 302/34 of the Indian Penal Code and section 27 of the Arms Act. The case has been registered for the occurrence, wherein two persons have been killed. The allegation of firing is against co-accused Rakesh Paswan and Dharmaveer Paswan. It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that he is not the assailant, rather the allegation against the petitioner is that he had dragged one Vijay Pandit to the place near Railway line and the two aforesaid accused persons fired at both of the deceased causing injuries to them, due to which they succumbed. It is submitted that 2 the petitioner is in custody since 15.10.2009. Learned counsel for the informant submitted that it was a case of pre-planned murder and when the petitioner’s vehicle was obstructed, the deceased persons were dragged and killed by the aforesaid accused persons. The deceased, Vijay Pandit, had been dragged by this petitioner and had been killed only for the reason that he would become a witness in the case of murder. Having considered the submissions made on behalf of the parties, the gravity of the nature of the occurrence wherein two persons had been killed, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail for the present. Thus, this application is dismissed at this stage. SC ( Dr. Ravi Ranjan, J.)
