IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr. Misc. No.9864 of 2010 RAMAKANT MAHTO son of Bisheshwar Mahto Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3/ 17.05.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner seeks bail in a case instituted for the offence under section 304-B of the Indian Penal Code. Considering that the son of the petitioner has stated that it is the petitioner, who had assaulted the deceased, and the post mortem examination report reveals injury on the neck, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Prayer for bail is rejected. The trial court is directed to expedite the trial in view of the serious nature of the offence. JA/- (Anjana Prakash, J.)
