Chiraiya, District- East Champaran. …. Petitioners. Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 27.10.2009 Heard counsel for the petitioners and counsel for the State. The petitioner no. 1 is said to have assaulted the injured by a farsa and petitioner no. 2 with a lathi. Injury report also supports the injuries given by the petitioners. The submission of learned counsel for the petitioner that the matter arises out of land dispute and there was a sudden provocation could have at least been of some effect, had the petitioners surrendered in time. This is a case of the year 2003 and the petitioners after remaining happily absconding for a period of six years have been taken into custody in the month of May/June 2009. Considering all these aspects, this court would reject the prayer for bail of the petitioners for the present. The petitioner no. 2 Sugambar Rai however is given 2 liberty to renew his prayer for bail after completing six months of his judicial custody whereas petitioner no. 1 Amod Rai can do so only after completing one year of his judicial custody. With the aforementioned observation, this application is dismissed. kanchan (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
