4. The following order was passed on 23.08.2023 in Cr. Misc. No. 52075 of 2023 which reads as under: "Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State.
2. The petitioner is in custody since 14.03.2023 in connection with Tiyar P.S. Case
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.21183 of 2024(2) dt.13-03-2024 2/2 No. 24/2023 registered for the offence punishable under Sections 307/34/342/324/326/323 of the Indian Penal Code. Later on Section 302 of the Indian Penal Code has been added.
3. As per the prosecution case, the deceased was found in an injured condition in the house of the petitioner. The police was not informed by the petitioner. The petitioner did not take her to hospital for treatment and subsequently the deceased died.
4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in this case due to ulterior motive. It is further submitted that the entire story is false and frivolous.
5. However, learned A.P.P. appearing on behalf of the State vehemently opposed the bail application.
6. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and also the fact that the deceased was a 12 years old child, this Court is not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. It is, accordingly, rejected."
5. This Court finds no new ground to review its earlier order dated 23.08.2023.
6. Accordingly, this application stands dismissed. (Sandeep Kumar, J) P. Kumar U T
