2. The petitioner seeks bail in a case registered for the offence punishable under Sections 103 (1)/61 (2)/351 (2) /3 (5) of the B.N.S. and Section 27 of the Arms Act.
3. The petitioner in association of other co-accused is said to have killed the husband of the informant by resorting firing upon him through country made pistol.
4. It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that no such occurrence as alleged ever took place. He is quite innocent and has been falsely implicated in this case. No incriminating article has been recovered from his conscious physical possession. Petitioner has been made accused in this case merely on suspicion. The allegation levelled against the
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.88861 of 2024(4) dt.17-03-2025 2/2 petitioner is not specific rather general and omnibus in nature. The petitioner has two criminal antecedents and has been languishing in custody since 29.07.2024.
5. Learned APP for the State assisted by learned counsel for the informant vehemently opposing the bail petition submitted that the petitioner is the main assailant, hence he does not deserve bail.
6. In the facts and circumstances of the case and the nature of the allegation, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. The prayer for bail is hereby rejected. However, the learned Trial Court is directed to expedite the trial. The petitioner would be at liberty to renew his prayer for bail after framing of charge.
