                                   -----------

2 24.3.2011 The petitioner is in custody in relation to Phulwariya

P.S.Case no. 10 of 2010 instituted under Section 302/34 of the

Indian Penal Code read with Section 27 of the Arms Act.

In the FIR it is alleged that when the informant’s

brother was reached near the home in the night , the petitioner

along with three other persons surrounded him and shot him.

Learned counsel for the petitioner draws attention of

this Court to the fact that the informant had not seen the

occurrence. The informant in the FIR itself disclosed that the

name of the petitioner and another were disclosed by two

persons, who were there. It is submitted that those two persons

are not even the resident of locality and , in fact, are the very

persons against whom the petitioner had earlier lodged an FIR

and they had been charge sheeted. He further points out that the

FIR was registered after much delay and the name of the

petitioner was not disclosed even when the inquest was being

prepared nor the name of the aforesaid two persons, who

disclosed the name of the petitioner, disclosed in the inquest

report, which was prepared earlier in presence of the informant.

It is thus submitted that the petitioner has falsely been implicated

in this case because of series of litigations between the two
2

families.

In the facts and circumstances of the case, let above

named petitioner be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of

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

each to the satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate,

Begusarai in Phulwariya P.S.Case no. 10 of 2010.
