IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.18736 of 2010 SHAMBHU RAI Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 27.5.2010 Heard the parties. The petitioner is in custody in Sarairanjan P.S. Case No.10/10 under section 376 of the I.P.C. The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that there is no other evidence except the statement of the victim lady and after investigation the police has given opinion that the offence at best can be said under section 354 of I.P.C. The learned A.P.P. objected the prayer for bail of the petitioner on the ground that there is direct allegation of rape. From perusal of the F.I.R. it is clear that the victim directly made allegation against the petitioner that he committed rape on her. In that view of the matter I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. However, it is made clear that after submission of the charge sheet if under section 354 of the I.P.C. the petitioner may renew his prayer for bail. AnilKr.Sinha ( Mungeshwar Sahoo, J. )
