Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.16116 of 2015 (2) dt.09-06-2015 The prosecution story, in brief, is that on the date of occurrence the petitioners along with other co-accused persons caught hold of Jhalakdeo Yadav, father of the informant, and took him to the field. Petitioner Mahendra Yadav along with Ravi Kumar and Munna Kumar shot at the chest of the father of the informant and Lalu Yadav gave knife blow resulting into his death. Petitioner Akhilesh Yadav shot at Dhanjay Kumar, cousin of the informant.
It has been submitted on behalf of the petitioners that the petitioners have been falsely implicated in the present case. The informant is not an eye witness to the occurrence. He got information from one Dhananjay Kumar. No specific role has been assigned against the petitioners. It has further been submitted on behalf of the petitioners that as per post mortem report there was only one fire arm injury upon the deceased whereas three accused persons are alleged to have shot at the deceased. The other injury found on the deceased was by hard and blunt substance. It is further submitted that actually a land dispute is going on in between both the parties. The petitioners are in custody since 6.2.2015 and 28.02.2015 respectively. Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioners in
Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.16116 of 2015 (2) dt.09-06-2015 connection with Karpi P.S. Case No. 213 of 2014 pending in the court of Sri B. M. Tripathi, Judicial Magistrate, 1st Class, Jehanabad.
