                                PRADIPTANTI AND ANR.
                                           Versus
                                 THE STATE OF BIHAR

2   22.02.2011

Heard learned counsel for the petitioners as well as learned

P.P. for the state.

The petitioners seek their bail in connection with Rajoun

P.S. Case No. 95 of 2010 registered under section 302/34 of the Indian

Penal Code.

It would appear from perusal of the fardbeyan of the

informant that on 22.6.2010 one dead body of unknown person was

recovered and the informant came to know that in previous night

aforesaid unknown person was mercilessly beaten by petitioners and

several other villagers when the aforesaid unknown person was caught

by the petitioners and other villagers in suspicious condition and on

account of the aforesaid assault aforesaid person died then and there.

The contention of learned counsel for the petitioners is that

no specific overt-act has been attributed against these petitioners and

as a matter of fact, the aforesaid unknown person was beaten by

several villagers when the aforesaid person was found in suspicious

condition and therefore, no responsibility can be fixed alone against

these petitioners.

In view of the aforesaid submissions as well as facts and

circumstances of the case, the petitioners, namely, Pradip Tanti and

Fusan Tanti are directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bond

of Rs 10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount
-2-

each in connection with Rajoun P.S. Case No. 95 of 2010

corresponding to Sessions Case No. 1233 of 2010 to the satisfaction of

2nd Additional Sessions Judge, Banka.
