The prosecution story, in brief, is that while the informant was getting his wheat crops harvested, Jag Narayan Singh, Rup Narayan Singh, Ajit Singh, Rajvansh Singh, Amar Singh arrived there and started abusing him. Jag Narayan Singh resorted to firing on him by means of rifle inflicting injury in his left hand and left chest, sustaining injury he fell down. Whereupon the other accused persons resorted firing on him which acrossed
Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.29198 of 2015 (2) dt.27-07-2015 2/2 by the side. When his family members and the villagers rushed in his rescue, the aforesaid accused persons left the scene resorted to firing. The bone contention is said to be demanding Rs. 2,00,000/- in extortion by the aforesaid accused persons. It has been submitted on behalf of the petitioner that the petitioner has got no criminal antecedent. The date of occurrence is said to be 09.04.2015 but the case was instituted on 11.04.2015 for which no explanation has been made on the part of the prosecution. It is a case and counter case. The land dispute is admitted between the parties.
On behalf of the State it has been submitted that the petitioner is named in the F.I.R.and there is specific allegation against this petitioner for causing injury upon the victim. Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. The same is rejected in Nokha (Dharmpura) P.S. Case No. 71/2015, pending in the court of the learned SDJM, Rohtas at Sasaram. Anyhow, if the petitioner surrenders in the court below within a period of four weeks the same shall be considered on its own merit preferably on the same day without being prejudiced by this order.
