Paras Nath Singh vs The State Of Bihar on 2 September, 2011
      Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.27458 of 2011 (2) dt.02-09-2011




                      IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA
                                  Criminal Miscellaneous No.27458 of 2011
                   ======================================================

Paras Nath Singh
…. …. Petitioner
Versus
The State Of Bihar
…. …. Opposite Party
======================================================

2 02-09-2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as

learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the state.

Petitioner is in jail custody for near about one year

in a case registered under Sections 302 of the Indian Penal Code

and 27 of the Arms Act on the allegation that he opened fire twice

as a result of which deceased sustained firearm injury and died

then and there.

The contention of the learned counsel for the

petitioner is that the petitioner has been implicated in this case on

account of pervious enmity and land dispute. It is further pointed

out that the petitioner is a retired person and the deceased was a

man of dubious character and he might has been killed by some

unknown persons but the petitioner has been dragged in this case

on account of above stated enmity. I am not, at all, convinced with

the submissions of learned counsel for the petitioner.

Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner in

connection with Bakhtiyarpur P.S. Case No. 137 of 2010
Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.27458 of 2011 (2) dt.02-09-2011

corresponding to Sessions Trial No. 1742 of 2010 pending in the

court of learned Additional Sessions Judge-V, Barh, Distt- Patna

is, hereby, rejected. However, the learned trial court should

expedite the trial of the petitioner and try to dispose of the same as

early as possible.
