IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr. Misc. No.33908 of 2009 SHANKAR VERMA @ SHANKER PRASAD VERMA @ BHAGAT JEE s/o Rajeshwar Prasad @ Lala Bhagat Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3/ 21.01.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner seeks bail in a case instituted for the offence under sections 302/34, 120-B of the Indian Penal Code. It appears that the deceased had instituted a case of theft of DVD against certain persons and to compromise the matter certain persons had threatened him with dire consequences and for this reason the deceased had given a Sanha before the police mentioning those persons, who had been threatening him. The petitioner’s name transpires as one of those persons, who was threatening the petitioner. Under the circumstances, since the occurrence has taken place in organized manner even though he is not the direct assailant, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Prayer for bail is rejected. The trial court is directed to expedite the trial. JA/- (Anjana Prakash, J.)
