Full Judgment
IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Criminal Miscellaneous No.2017 of 2012 Sanjeev Jha Versus The State Of Bihar ---------------------------------- 2/ 23.1.2012 Heard learned counsels for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner is apprehending arrest in a case registered under sections 147, 148, 149, 379, 436 and 323 of the Indian Penal Code. The accusations are of putting the bus on fire and committing theft. It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that one of the buses of the same owner crushed one child on the same day and on protest, the villagers put the bus on fire. There is nothing specifically alleged against the petitioner. Considering the fact that others have been granted bail, I see no reason for the learned court below to grant same relief to the petitioner in case the petitioner surrenders and prays for regular bail within six weeks from today in connection with Hajipur Sadar P.S. Case No. 300 of 2005 pending in the court of C.J.M. Vaishali at Hajipur. It is made clear that this Court is not inclined to interfere in the matter because the case is of 2005. With the aforementioned observation/direction, this application is disposed of. Let this order be communicated to the learned court 2 below through FAX at the cost of the petitioner.
