IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.21037 of 2009 SHANKAR SINGH & ANR Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 05/ 29.10.2009 Heard learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners and learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State. Petitioners are accused in Sheikhpura P.S. Case No. 42 of 2005 for offences punishable under Sections 341, 342, 323, 325, 307 and 302/34 of the Indian Penal Code. Perusal of the F.I.R. shows that the death of the daughter of the informant has been attributed to assault made by the petitioners herein. The post mortem report assigns the reason of death to the injuries sustained by the deceased, the daughter of the informant. Considering the nature of allegations, I am not inclined to release the petitioner on bail. Prayer for bail is rejected. The matter after commitment is pending before learned Additional Sessions Judge, F.T.C. No. 3, Sheikhpura, who is directed to expedite the trial as it is an old matter. S.Sb/- (Jyoti Saran, J.)
