..... Petitioner
Versus
The State of Jharkhand
…. Opposite Party
CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE H.C. MISHRA
For the Petitioner : Mr. Anil Kr. Sinha For the State : A. P.P.
5/05.1.2015 Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the
State.
The petitioner is apprehending his arrest in connection with Chandwara P.S. Case No.144 of 2013, corresponding to G.R. No.1930 of 2013, for the alleged offences under Sections 376 and 302 of the Indian Penal Code.
There is direct allegation against the petitioner to have affair with the daughter-in-law of the informant and when he was chased, it is alleged that he pushed the deceased into the well and fled away.
In the facts and circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, prayer for anticipatory bail stands rejected.
