IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.3360 of 2010 JITENDRA KUMAR, Son of Sri Suresh Prasad, resident of Village-Hasanpur, P.S. Rajgir, District-Nalanda.--- Petitioner Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 02 19-02-2010 Heard Mr.Mukesh Kumar, learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned A.P.P. for the State. The petitioner, who is in custody in connection with Silao P.S. Case No.82 of 2009 registered under Sections 399 / 402 of the Indian Penal Code and 25(1- b)A/26/35 of the Arms Act, has prayed for grant of bail. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has remained in jail for more than seven months. In the case, from the conscious possession of the petitioner one loaded country-made pistol and one cartridge of AK-47 rifle were recovered. From the records, it appears that he is accused in other cases also. Considering the nature of allegation, particularly that he is having no clean antecedent and that recovery of one loaded country made pistol and one cartridge of AK- 47,I am not inclined to grant privilege of bail to the - 2 - petitioner. Since the petitioner is in custody for about seven months, it is desirable that steps may be taken to commence and conclude the trial at an early date. NKS/- ( Rakesh Kumar, J)
