IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.19546 of 2009 MANGAL SAH @ MANGAL DAS, son of Sukh Mohan Das, Resident of village- Mohni Colony, P.S.- Kasba, District- Purnea.------ Petitioner Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 8.6.2009 Petitioner is an accused in a case under Sections 302, 201/34 of the Indian Penal Code. The victim boy who is about 12 years of age was working in the hotel of this petitioner. There is allegation in the First Information Report that the dead body of the boy was found lying in a banana field. He was badly beaten and injured. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that there is no eye witness to the occurrence and it is only on the basis of suspicion that the petitioner has been made accused in this case. It appears from the First Information Report that the victim boy was working with the petitioner and he would be responsible for his welfare. During investigation it appears that the 2 boy was last seen with the petitioner. In the circumstances, I find that the period of custody is very short and I am not inclined to grant bail to this petitioner. This application is dismissed. Sanjay ( Sheema Ali Khan, J.)
