well as learned counsel for the State.

The petitioner has surrendered before the

Court below and is custody in connection with

Barauni P.S. Case No. 322 of 2009 under

Sections 302/34 of the I.P.C. registered on

24.10.2009.

It is submitted by the learned counsel for

the petitioner that the informant, who is the wife

of the deceased, neither named him in the FIR

nor in the protest petition filed later on.

He further submits that the other accused in

the case have also not taken name of the

petitioner. He states that the petitioner is over 70

years old being a retired Government Teacher

crime. He has been made accused by the police

on the very flimsy ground that there was some

suspicion and the petitioner is in custody since

the case, let the petitioner be released on bail
