For the Petitioner :

For the State :

Mr. Arvind Kumar Pandey(App84) ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE JITENDRA KUMAR ORAL ORDER 19-02-2025 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned APP for the State.

2. The petitioner seeks bail in connection with Kadirganj P.S. Case No.536 of 2022 dated 31.05.2022 registered for the offences punishable under Sections 341, 323, 307, 504 and 506/34

3. As per allegation the petitioner and two other coaccused have brutally injured the mother of the informant by knife who is now struggling for life in the hospital.

4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is innocent and has falsely been implicated in this case. She further submits that there is no proof of any enmity and it is beyond imagination that the petitioner would commit

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.4959 of 2025(2) dt.19-02-2025 2/2 such brutal offence.

5. She further submits that the petitioner has been languishing in jail since 29.08.2024.

6. It has also been stated in paragraph no. 3 of the bail petition that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent.

7. It is also stated in paragraph no. 2 of the bail petition that the petitioner has not moved this Court earlier either for anticipatory bail or regular one.

8. However, learned APP for the State vehemently opposes the prayer of the petitioner for bail submitting that as per the order passed by learned trial court it clearly transpires that the charge sheet has been submitted and even cognizance has been taken. The case of the petitioner has been supported by medical as well as oral evidence of the witnesses.

9. Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances of the case, I am not persuaded to enlarge the petitioner on bail.

10. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner stands rejected.
