                                            Versus
                                     The State Of Bihar
                                           -----------

03/ 12.10.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned

Addl. Public Prosecutor for the State.

Petitioner is in jail custody since 22.6.2011 in a case

registered under section 307 and other minor sections of the IPC.

Although, in the first information report no specific overt-

act has been attributed against the petitioner but in course of

investigation when the statement of injured Harendra Singh was

recorded by the Investigating officer, the aforesaid injured Harendra

Singh specifically stated that it was the petitioner who gave farsa

injury on his head. It appears from the injury report of the injured

Harendra Singh that he has sustained grievous injury on his head.

The submission on behalf of the petitioner is that there is

case and counter case between the parties and for the same

occurrence, on the same day, a complaint case bearing Complaint case

no. 912/2011 has been filed and furthermore, petitioner has also

sustained injury but there is no injury of the petitioner either on the

record or has been mentioned in the impugned order of the learned

Sessions Judge.

Taking into consideration the above stated facts and

circumstances as well as submissions of the parties, I do not feel it

proper to release the petitioner on bail.

Accordingly, his prayer for bail in connection with
2

Gopalganj P.S. Case no. 136/2011 is, hereby, rejected.

However, the petitioner may renew his prayer for bail after

completion of nine months in custody if his trial is not concluded.
