IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.10439 of 2010 LALAN SAHANI son of Nathuni Sahani, resident of village Permanandpur, P.S. Vashali, District Vaishali.. …Petitioner Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR… Opposite Party For the Petitioner: Mr. Rudal Singh, Advocate For the State: Mr. Nitya Nand, APP ----------- 2 02.04.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner is in custody and seeks bail in a case registered under sections 307 and 302 of the Indian Penal Code and section 27 of the Arms Act. It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that the informant died after one and half months from the date of occurrence, therefore, the whole story becomes doubtful and it seems that he has been falsely implicated in this case. It is also stated that except the informant nobody had seen the occurrence. Learned counsel for the State submits that there is direct allegation of firing upon the petitioner, as per the first information report and subsequently the informant died and as such, the statement made by him may be treated as dying declaration. 2 Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case and specially in view of the fact that there is direct allegation against the petitioner of resorting to firing upon the informant causing injury to him, due to which, it is stated, he died, I am not inclined to enlarge him on bail. This application is, accordingly, dismissed. However, the trial court shall make all possible efforts for expeditious disposal of the concerned trial. SC ( Dr. Ravi Ranjan, J.)
