Petitioner Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ….. Opposite party ----------- 02/ 24.11.2008 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. Petitioner is an accused in a case under Section 376 and other allied Sections of the Indian Penal Code. He is named in the First Information Report by the prosecutrix as the one who committed rape on her. In the circumstances, I am not inclined to admit the petitioner to the privilege of bail. This application is, accordingly, rejected. The court below (A.C.J.M., Rosera, Samastipur) is directed to commit the case ( Bithan P.S.
