IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.24115 of 2011 Saroj Kumar Paswan @ Saroj Paswan son of Shivcharan Paswan, resident of village-Barha, P.S.-Bisfi, Dist.-Madhubani. Versus The State of Bihar ----------- 2. 25.7.2011. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State. In a case registered for the offence under sections 363 and 366(A) of the Indian Penal Code, a prayer has been made for grant of anticipatory bail. The petitioner claims himself to be juvenile as his date of birth is 15.6.1995 as per School Leaving Certificate as contained in annexure-2 to his petition. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that on the date of occurrence i.e. 29.1.2010 the petitioner would be less than sixteen years of age. In my view, the application under section 438 of the Cr.P.C. in the case of juvenile would not be maintainable. In that view of the matter, the present application for bail is held to be not maintainable in law and the petitioner is at liberty to seek his remedy before appropriate forum in accordance with law. With this observation, this application is disposed of. Md.S. ( Ashwani Kumar Singh, J.)
