For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Manish Kumar For the Respondent/s : Mr. Sri Ram Priya Saran Singh ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE CHAKRADHARI SHARAN SINGH ORAL ORDER 06-07-2017 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and the learned Additional Public Prosecutor representing the State. This Criminal Revision application has been filed against an order, dated 02.11.2016, passed in Criminal Appeal No. 16 of 2016, whereby learned First Additional Sessions Judge, Saran at Chapra, has rejected the appeal preferred against an order, dated 22.09.2016, passed by the Juvenile Justice Board, Chapra, in JJB Case No. 1531 of 2016 (Amnour P.S.case No. 122 of 2016) refusing petitioner's petition for his release on bail.

The petitioner is a juvenile and he is an accused in a case disclosing offence punishable under Sections 302/34 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 27 of the Arms Act. I do not find any legal infirmity much less perversity

in the impugned orders. The impugned orders do not require interference in the present criminal revisional jurisdiction. In that view of the matter, I dispose of the application with a direction to the Juvenile Justice Board, Saran at Chapra, to expedite the enquiry and conclude it within a period of three months from the date of communication of the present order.

If the enquiry, under Section 14 of the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2000 is not concluded by the Juvenile Justice Board, Saran at Chapra, within the aforesaid period of three months, the petitioner may renew his prayer for his release on bail before appropriate forum in accordance with law.

This application stands disposed of with the observation and direction, as above.
