IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.1119 of 2011 KAPURI MANDAL SON OF SITA RAM MANDAL Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3 05.04.2011 Heard learned counsels for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner is apprehending his arrest in connection with Sabour P.S. Case No. 102/10 pending in the court of learned C.J.M., Bhagalpur registered under Sections 302 and 201/34 of the Indian Penal Code. It is alleged that the husband of the informant went outside the house on 18.05.2010 but, he did not return. One Mahesh Mandal conveyed to the informant that her husband has gone to get the employment. It appears from the F.I.R., that the accusation has been made against four persons including the petitioner who took away the victim and have killed him. It appears that during the investigation, the slipper and other articles of the victim were recovered and blood stained earth were also found near the Ganga river, but, the victim has not been recovered. 2 It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that, on suspicion, the accusation has been levelled and the petitioner has no criminal antecedent. Moreover, the occurrence took place on 18.05.2010, for which, the F.I.R., has been lodged on 21.06.2010. Considering the fact that there are strong circumstantial evidences against the petitioner which has been supported by the witnesses, though, there is no eye witness to the occurrence, this court is not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner, however, the suspicious nature of accusation may be a ground for grant of regular bail. Let the learned court below decide the regular bail application of the petitioner. With above observation, this application is, accordingly, disposed off. Amrendra/- (Dinesh Kumar Singh, J.)
