ANJANA MISHRA ORAL ORDER 17-09-2019 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State. The petitioner is in custody since 07.03.2019 in connection with Nalanda P.S. Case No. 04 of 2019, registered for the offence, punishable under Sections 363, 365, 364 and 302 of the Indian Penal Code.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has falsely been implicated on mere suspicion. It is further submitted that the police forcibly took signature of the petitioner on plain paper and fabricated the story as confessional statement. It is also submitted that the petitioner never confessed before the police for commission of the offence. So the petitioner may be extended the privilege of bail.
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.55235 of 2019(2) dt.17-09-2019 2/2 Learned counsel for the informant submits that on the basis of the confessional statement of the petitioner the deadbody of the son of the informant was recovered. He further submits that due to alleged illicit relationship of the deceased with the wife of the petitioner, the latter might have been eliminated. He thus submits that the petitioner does not deserve the privilege of bail.
Considering the aforementioned facts and circumstances, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. His prayer for bail is accordingly rejected.
However, the trial shall be expedited.
