Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.10965 of 2021(2) dt.06-07-2021 2/2 Informant has alleged that the petitioner, who is his cousin, has come in front of his house and assaulted his father who succumbed to his injuries.

Petitioner's counsel submit that it is a case of false implication. The petitioner had no idea that such petty assault would result in the death of his uncle. The petitioner is in custody since 23.08.2020. It is further submitted that the petitioner had one criminal antecedent in which he has been ordered to be released on bail arising out of Udwant Nagar P.S. Case No.141 of 1990.

Learned APP for the State has opposed the prayer for bail. Drawing the attention of the Court towards the postmortem report, copy of which has been annexed to the bail application (Annexure 2), he submit that the vital organs; lung, heart and brain, have been damaged on account of the assault. The petitioner is alleged to be the sole assailant. Considering the rival submissions, this Court is not inclined to allow the petitioner's prayer for bail. Prayer for bail is rejected, for the present.
