JUSTICE RAJIV ROY ORAL ORDER 01-04-2022 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned APP for the State through video conferencing. The Kargahar P.S. Case No.126 of 2020 was lodged on 17.05.2020 under Section 302/34 of the Indian Penal Code and 26 of the Arms Act lodged by the informant, Jay Prakash Kumar.

As per the prosecution story, the informant has stated that his father had gone to bring some vegetables from his field. Suddenly, Shivam Kumar, his brother who was accompanying his father came running home and stated that their father is being assaulted as also have been fired upon. Upon knowledge, the informant ran towards the field where he saw this petitioner and one more person fleeing away from the scene of occurrence in a motorcycle. When they reached towards their father, the informant found that his father is lying on the field and bullet

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.52059 of 2021(3) dt.01-04-2022 2/2 injuries are there on the head and chest amongst other. The reason that has been attributed to this case is that the petitioner and one another person was sitting near the field and asked for water and when the informant's father refused to oblige them, firstly they verbally abused his father and later the bullets were fired which resulted into his death.

Considering the gravity of the allegation where the role of killing has directly been attributed to the petitioner herein, I am not inclined to grant privilege of bail to him, which is accordingly rejected.

The learned trial court is directed to expeditiously conclude the trial.
