BITTO SINGH @ BITTO KUMAR SINGH ------------PETITIONERS Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 8.9.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and the State. This Criminal Revision application is being disposed of at the stage of admission with the consent of the parties. In the case, a mob came to informant’s house, started to assault her husband and chased while he tried to rescue but was done to death. In that course, it is said that the shot made by some of accused persons hit one Chandan Singh resulted into his death. While the defence of petitioners is that Chandan Singh was attacked by the irritated villagers of the informant’s side and killed. None of them have criminal antecedent including the petitioners who are juvenile also even then their prayer has been refused on the ground of involvement of their family members. The case record clearly shows about two cases - 2 - filed by the parties. The circumstances shown or discussed do not justify about having petitioners’ association of known criminals, or expose him to moral, physical or psychological danger or their release would any way defeats the ends of justice and they are in custody since 9.6.2009 this aspect has not been considered by the Juvenile Justice Board, nor by the appellate Court.
