Versus

1. The State of Bihar .... .... Opposite Party/s ====================================================== Appearance :

For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Amal Kumar Sinha For the Opposite Party/s : Mr. G.S.Gupta(App) ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE PRABHAT KUMAR JHA ORAL ORDER 10-03-2015 Heard both sides.

The petitioner seeks bail in a case under section 302 and other sections of the I.P.C.

The informant alleged that some dispute arose due to harvesting of maize crops, and the petitioner is alleged to have assaulted Md.Mustafa with bamboo on his head. Md. Mustafa died during the course of treatment.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the occurrence took place due to land dispute. There is no eye-witness to the occurrence.

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.2914 of 2015 (3) dt.10-03-2015 2 / 2 It appears that the informant himself stated that it was the petitioner who assaulted Md. Mustafa with bamboo on his head and on account of head injury Md. Mustafa died. Hence, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. Accordingly, the prayer for bail is rejected. The trial court is directed to expedite and conclude the trial within nine months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. If the trial is not concluded, the petitioner may renew his prayer for bail firstly in the trial court.
