IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.49344 of 2008 BIND KUMAR @ BINOD SINGH, SON OF Late Ram Briksh Singh, Resident of village Nonai, P.S. Akbarpur, District- Nawada. --------- Petitioner Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR --------- Opposite Party. ----------- 2 12.1.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the counsel appearing on behalf of the State. The petitioner is an accused in a case under Sections 414, and 34 of the Indian Penal Code and Section ¾ of the Environment Protection Act. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that there is no proof or material to show that the coal was stolen properties in view of the fact that in the First Information Report it has been stated that on information given in daily newspaper ‘Dainik Jagran’, the police party had conducted the raid. However, it appears that the petitioner does not have the licence to run business of coal. It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that the entire quantity of coal seized was about 3 tonnes. Considering the aforesaid facts, I am not inclined to grant bail to this petitioner. However, if the petitioner files an application for regular bail, it should be disposed of within a period of one month by the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Nawada. Sanjay (Sheema Ali Khan, J.)
