IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.12291 of 2010 SAT NARAIN THAKUR Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 10.05.2010 Heard both sides. Petitioner prays for grant of bail in a case instituted under Sections 364(A) and 34 of Indian Penal Code. Petitioner appears to be known to the family of the informant. Allegation is that he took 7 year’s old son of the informant on bicycle on a plea of offering him a ride. The boy was later kidnapped. On 29.7.2009, the victim was recovered by the police. He has made a statement before the court under Section 164 Cr.P.C. (Annexure-2). It appears therefrom that he has named the petitioner as one of the kidnappers who after effecting kidnapping had made ransom calls as well. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that owing to enmity, he has been named as accused by the informant as they were residing together in Daman. It is next contended that petitioner has no criminal antecedent and that he is in custody since 29.7.2009. Looking to the allegation and the materials available on record, this court is not persuaded to grant him privilege of bail. The application is rejected. The petitioner shall have liberty to renew prayer for bail if there is undue delay in the trial. pkj ( Kishore K. Mandal, J. )
