IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.14098 of 2009 ANIL KUMAR MAHTO @ ANIL MAHTO SON OF SRI SIYA RAM MAHTO RESIDENT OF VILLAGE PARBANDHA(PARBANDA),P.S.BIRPUR,DISTT.BEGUSARAI Versus STATE OF BIHAR For the petitioner : Mr.Parmeshwar Mehta For the State : Mr.Addl.P.P. ----------- 6/ 4.1.2010 Heard learned counsel for the parties. The petitioner seeks bail in Begusarai Nagar P.S.Case No. 360 of 2007 which has been registered for offences under Sections 302 and 120(B)/34 of the Indian penal Code and 27 of the Arms Act. Ram Naresh Sharma, an Addl.P.P., Begusarai was killed and first information report was registered. Submission is that on the date of occurrence, the petitioner was in custody and he has no connection at all with the murder of Addl.P.P. His name has come on the basis of confessional statement of co-accused which has got no evidentiary value. It appears that other co-accused namely, Nandan Kumar Singh and Ram Chandra Thakur have filed applications for bail and their applications have been dismissed on 19.8.2008 and 15.9.2008 Vide Cr.Misc.Nos. 17667 and 22539 of 2008 respectively. The allegation against the petitioner is almost similar to those whose prayer for bail has been rejected. Considering all these, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, his prayer for bail is rejected. Tahir/- ( Shyam Kishore Sharma, J.)
