IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.4932 of 2009 MANTU PASWAN S/O-Late Soma Paswan, R/O-Mohalla-Chandiasthan, P.S.-Kotwali, Distt.-Munger. ………………………………………….Petitioner. Versus STATE OF BIHAR …………………………………………..Opposite Party. ----------- 3/ 22.04.2009 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and learned Counsel appearing on behalf of the State. Initially, the case has been registered under Sections 363, 366 A of the Indian Penal Code. Later on Sections 376, 120B of the Indian Penal Code has been added. The informant’s daughter Rina Kumari aged 13 years was taken away by Pankaj, petitioner Mantu Paswan, Sunil Paswan and wife of Gado. When she was recovered, she has given her statement under Sections 161 and 164 of the Cr. P.C. and in those statements she has described the manner of her agony. She has told that this petitioner has also raped her once and Pankaj has forcibly married with her. It appears that Sunil Paswan was 2 refused bail earlier twice and he has been granted bail in his third attempt after spending much time. Allegation against Pankaj is of committing rape and against this petitioner the allegation is same. Now, it has been submitted that Pankaj has been convicted after trial. Pankaj was refused bail earlier. The case of the petitioner is not much different from the case of Pankaj. Considering this, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, his prayer for bail is rejected. kksinha/ (Shyam Kishore Sharma, J.)
