IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.23608 of 2010 SAKLU GUPTA S/O RAM KUMAR SAH Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 15.7.2010 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner seeks bail in a case instituted for the offence under Sections 147, 148, 149, 307, 302/34 of the Indian Penal Code and 27 of the Arms Act. Considering that there is allegation against the petitioner of having fired at the deceased along with other co-accused persons and he remained absconding for about eight years, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner at this stage. The prayer for bail is rejected. However, considering that the informant himself did not support his case during trial of other co-accused persons, the petitioner may renew his prayer for bail after examination of the informant, who shall be examined as a first witness by the trial court.
