IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr. Misc. No.24254 of 2010 ASHOK YADAV @ ARVIND KUMAR SINHA Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 4. 26.10.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner, informant and the State. The petitioner is an accused under sections 307, 384 of the Indian Penal Code and 27 of the Arms Act. The informant states that he was returning on the motorcycle with one Rantu Kumar and the other motorcycle was driven by Prem Prakash on which Manoj Singh and Pappu Singh were sitting. In the meantime, at about 8.15 P.M altogether 15 persons including the petitioner intercepted them. They were armed with rifles. It is alleged that the petitioner fired causing gun-shot injury on the back of Pappu Singh. One Manoj Singh also fired causing gun-shot injury on the right shoulder of Pappu Singh. Reason behind occurrence is said to be demand of Rangdari. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that he has falsely been implicated in the case as 15 persons have been named in the first information report. Petitioner is handicapped and, therefore, it appears improbable that he would have fired on the injured. Similarly situated co- accused has also been allowed bail by this court and petitioner surrendered on 23.4.2010. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. The prayer for bail is rejected. However, he may renew his prayer for bail after completing one year in custody. Devendra/- ( Samarendra Pratap Singh, J.)
