IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.10142 of 2009 SHASHI KANT JYOTI, Son of Bhagwan Prasad, resident of Village – Ranisarai, P.S. Giriak, District – Nalanda. ….. Petitioner. Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ….. Opp. Party. ----------- 03/ 11.06.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. Petitioner is an accused in a case registered for the offence under Sections 420, 467, 468, 471, 472, 474, 120B/34 of the Penal Code. He is named in the First Information Report along with two others including his Maternal grand father Dwarika Prasad @ Mahto. It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that at the time of the raid the petitioner was arrested along with his Maternal grand father Dwarika Prasad and one another Bhagwan Prasad, but the certificates which were seized were later on found to be genuine. In the circumstances, he should be admitted to privilege of bail, I am not inclined to accept such submission as from the case diary itself, it appears that the witnesses have been examined to support the allegation against Dwarika Prasad. Petitioner appears to be his associate as he was 2 arrested in the company of Dwarika Prasad, I am not inclined to release him on bail at this stage. He is, however, at liberty to renew prayer for bail after completing one year in jail custody. DKS/ (V.N. Sinha, J)
