IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.22033 of 2010 VIKASH KUMAR, SON OF RAJ KISHORE PRASAD Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3. 27.08.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner, learned counsel for the Informant and the State. The petitioner seeks bail in a case instituted for the offence under Sections 364(A) and 302 of the Indian Penal Code. It has been submitted that the petitioner is not named in the First Information Report rather his name transpired in the confessional statement of the co-accused that he was the driver of the vehicle in which the kidnapping for ransom had been executed. Considering the nature of allegations, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. The prayer for bail is rejected. The trial court is directed to expedite the trial in view of the serious nature of the offence. The Informant who is here undertakes to ensure smooth progress of the trial. S.Ali ( Anjana Prakash, J.)
