IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.23210 of 2010 BHIKHARI YADAV, S/o late Ram Laddu Yadav, R/o Hasanpur, P.s. Ara Muffasil, District Bhojpur ….. Petitioner Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR … Opposite Party ----------- For the petitioner : Mr. Rajendra Nath Singh, Advocate For the State : Mr. Ajay Kumar, A.P.P. ---- 3 14.07.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned A.P.P. for the State. The petitioner seeks bail in a case registered for offences punishable under Section 302of the Indian Penal Code. It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that though the petitioner is named in the F.I.R. as assailant, however, sister of the petitioner, during her examination as witness, has not supported the same allegation. Learned counsel for the State submitted that the bail application of the petitioner has already been rejected after hearing the parties on 11.12.2009 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 35793 of 2009 as the allegation is that the petitioner assaulted his mother for grabbing her 2 property alone due to which she sustained injuries and, later on, she died. Considering the gravity of the offence and the fact there is direct allegation against this petitioner of assaulting his mother, due to which she subsequently died and no fresh ground for grant of bail could be made by the petitioner, the prayer for bail is rejected. As a result this application is dismissed. However, the trial court is directed to take every possible steps for expeditious disposal of the trial preferably within nine months.
