Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.50259 of 2024(2) dt.04-09-2024 2/3 been falsely implicated in this case merely on suspicion as he happens to be agnate of the main accused, Rupes Thakur.

It is further submitted that according to F.I.R., Nagina Thakur @ Chokat Thakur, Shiv Shankar Thakur @ Ramji Thakur and Santosh Thakur instigated the main accused Rupesh Thakur to eliminate the informant's husband.
