IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CR.MISC. NO.1336 OF 2010 NIVEDITA SINGH, WIFE OF SHRI SHRAWAN KUMAR SINGH, RESIDENT OF VILLAGE RUKHI, POLICE STATION ROH, DISTRICT NAWADAH VERSUS THE STATE OF BIHAR ******** 5 14/05/2010 The allegations against the petitioner, who happens to be the member of the Zila Parishad, are for the offences under Sections 147, 148, 149, 324, 307, 302, 109, 120B of the Indian Penal Code, Section 27 of the Arms Act and Sections 131 & 132 of the Representation of People Act. The incident took place during the Panchayat Elections. It is alleged that she had gone to be Polling Booths and terrorized the voters to vote in favour of her candidate. It is said that the petitioner and her group of supporters chased the supporters of the Mukhiya. Three persons died in the occurrence. Counsel for the petitioner submits that the lady in question was not present at the place of occurrence and her name has transpired as an instigator. Counsel for the State submits that the case diary prima facie shows that the petitioner could be charged under Sections 302/34 & 120 B of the Indian Penal Code, although there is no evidence that she fired at any of the three persons. Counsel for the petitioner submits that the 2 lady has been deliberately named as accused in this case due to political rivalry and there are insufficient materials to convict her. I do not see reason to interfere with the order taking cognizance. The points that have been raised in this application may be raised at the stage of discharge, when the Court will have the opportunity to consider in more details the evidence in the case diary. This application is accordingly dismissed. Anand ( Sheema Ali Khan, J.)
