Learned counsel for the petitioners has submitted that the petitioners, who are of clean antecedent, are innocent and have not committed any offence. In fact, the petitioners happen to be nephew of the deceased and they along with their family were looking after the deceased, Sharifan Rai and the cremation and Sraddh Karm was also performed by the
Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.27711 of 2017 (3) dt.22-08-2017 petitioners. The informant is not the eye witness to the alleged occurrence nor any witnesses have seen the occurrence. Hence, the petitioners deserve the privilege of anticipatory bail. Learned A.P.P. for the State has opposed the prayer for bail and submitted that both the petitioners are named in the F.I.R. and there are allegations against them that they are seen fleeing away from the place of occurrence.
Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, this Court is not inclined to grant privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioners. Accordingly, the prayer for grant of anticipatory bail of the petitioners is rejected.
