IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.32859 of 2010 DASHRATH YADAV @ YOGENDRA YADAV, S/o Lorik Yadav, Resident of Village – Bahwariya, P.S.- Bathwariya, District – West Champaran Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 4 14.02.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and Sri Sanjay Kumar Singh, learned Additional Public Prosecutor. The petitioner who is in custody in Yogapatti P.S. Case No. 2 of 2001 for offence under Sections 364(A), 120(B), 302 & 201 of the Indian Penal Code has prayed for grant of bail. It was submitted that F.I.R. was lodged against unknown and petitioner was made accused in the present case due to the reason that father of the petitioner had filed a complaint case against the Investigating Officer and other Police Officers. It was further submitted that the petitioner had been made accused on the basis of confession of co-accused. He was residing at Assam and after coming to know regarding his involvement he surrendered in this case and he had already remained in jail for more than one year. Learned Additional Public Prosecutor has opposed the prayer for bail. In this case, father of informant was firstly kidnapped. Thereafter, some ransom was also obtained and finally he was done to death. It further appears that in this case charges have already been framed and case is pending for trial. Keeping in view the seriousness of accusation as well as the fact that trial has already commenced, I am not inclined to extend the privilege of bail to the petitioner. 2 Petition stands rejected. Since the petitioner is in custody, it is expected that learned Trial Court will take all steps for early disposal of the trial. Praful/- ( Rakesh Kumar, J.)
