IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.18642 of 2011 MUKESH MAHTO @ MUKESH KUMAR & ANRS. Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2/ 15.6.2011 Heard. Let petitioner surrender before the A.C.J.M., Patna City, Patna in connection with Khusrupur P.S. Case no. 43 of 2011 for regular bail, who shall consider that mere assertion of the section is not sufficient to reject the prayer for bail which has to be done only in the light of the individual allegations which might be appearing against the accused persons. As regards the present case, contention is that there is no statement made in the FIR that any act was done by any of the petitioners so as to humiliate the informant or any of his family members in the public view. Merely because the informant was the member of Scheduled Caste or Scheduled Tribe could not be sufficient in absence of materials justifying the constitution of the offence to dismiss the prayer for bail. This court also finds no statement made in the written report justifying the assertion of section 3(i)(x) of the Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe (Prevention of atrocities) Act and expects the court below to admit the petitioner on bail as and when he appears before it and prays for regular bail. The petition stands disposed of with the aforesaid observations. Anil/ ( Dharnidhar Jha, J.)
