IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CR. WJC No.428 of 2008 LILA DEVI,wife of Rajkishore Sharma, resident of village Kujapi, P.S. Chandauti, Distt. Gaya---Petitioner Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR through the Director General of Police Main Secretariat, Patna. 2. The Superintendent of Police, Gaya. 3. Officer-in-charge, Police Station, Chandauti 4. Dilip Mistri, son of Ganauri Mistri 5. Sangam Devi, daughter of Dilip Mistri 6. Bablu Sharma, son of Kapil Sharma --Respondents 12 6.1.2009 Prayer of the petitioner in this writ application is for issuance of a writ in the nature of habeas corpus to trace out his son Narottam Mistri. Mr. K.K.Thakur, appears on behalf of the petitioner. State is represented by Mr. Parsoon Sinha, Government Advocate No.III. It is not the case of the petitioner that his son is in illegal confinement of any public authority or kept in confinement at a particular place. In the counter affidavit filed on behalf of the respondent a plea has been taken that warrant of arrest has been issued against the son of the petitioner and in order to avoid that he had concealed himself. Be that as it may, as the petitioner is unable to satisfy us that he is under illegal confinement of any public authority or kept in confinement at a particular place the prayer made for issuance of a writ in the nature of habeas corpus is absolutely misconceived. Government Advocate No.III however assures us that all efforts shall be made to apprehend him and brought to justice. - 2 - Let it be done. Application stands disposed off accordingly.
