Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3. 25.11.2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State. The petitioner who is facing direct allegation for offence under Section 307 and other allied section of the Indian Penal Code has only one defence that it was a day of Holi and in such revelry he had inadvertently committed the offence and in fact there was no intention to do away with the life of the injured informant. This court had called for injury report and on perusal of the same it would transpire that two incised injuries one on the chest and other on the waist has been found by the doctor which of course were found to be simple in nature but then its presence on vital portion of the body would discredit the aforesaid defence of the petitioner. In that view of the matter, this court is not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner as he is in custody only for a 2 period little more than six months. The prayer for bail of the petitioner is, accordingly, rejected for the present. However, the petitioner may renew his prayer for bail after completing one year of his judicial custody. kanchan (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
