IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.15189 of 2009 1. LAXMI RAI 2. Saryug Pd. Sah @ Saryu Sah 3. Namo Narain Rai 4. Krishan Bihari @ Kish Bihari Sah Versus The STATE OF BIHAR ------ 2/ 05.05.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned counsel for the State. Submission of the learned counsel for the petitioners is that earlier case filed on behalf of the petitioners’ side against the informant’s brother. Allegation for the offence under Section 379 of I.P.C. is super addition and parties have compromised but allegation against the petitioners is for abusing in the name of the caste. The offence under Section 3(i)(x) of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of atrocities) Act is not compoundable and anticipatory bail is not maintainable. So, I find it not a fit case for grant of anticipatory bail. Accordingly, the prayer of the petitioners is rejected. However, petitioners are directed to surrender before the Court below and pray for regular bail where the compromise shall be taken into consideration. shail (Mandhata Singh, J.)
