JUSTICE CHAKRADHARI SHARAN SINGH ORAL ORDER 09-02-2016 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Additional Public Prosecutor appearing on behalf of the State.

Case No. 56 of 2014, disclosing offences under Sections 302,201 of the Indian Penal Code and section 27 of the Arms Act.

In view of the Supreme Court decision in case of Jai Prakash Singh Vs.

This application is accordingly rejected. Petitioner is directed to surrender before the Court below
