Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.25163 of 2017 (3) dt.03-07-2017 2/3 informant's son Heman Yadav.

It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioners that although as many as 21 persons and four others have been named in the First Information Report, but no specific allegation has been levelled against these petitioners. He submits that on account of land dispute between the parties, which is evident from the First Information Report itself, petitioners have been made accused. He submits that charge-sheet has already been submitted, hence, there is no chance of tampering with the prosecution evidence and the allegations are general and omnibus. However, learned counsel appearing for the informant vehemently opposes the prayer for bail stating therein that the petitioners along with other co-accused armed with various weapons had come in police uniform and have collectively killed the informant's son, Heman Yadav. Learned A.P.P. for the State also opposes the prayer for bail.

Considering the facts and circumstances and the materials on record, let the petitioners, named above, be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 10,000/- (Rs. Ten thousand only) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Additional Sessions Judge-III, Jamui in connection with Sessions Trial No. 56 of 2017, arising out of Sono
