The petitioner has been made accused in connection with Hazaribag Keredari P.S. Case No. 87 of 2024, corresponding to G.R. Case No.1509 of 2024, S.T. No.362 of 2024, for the offences registered under Sections 323, 341, 342, 307, 326, 354, 379, 452, 504 & 506/34 of the Indian Penal Code, pending in the court of Sri Tarun Kumar, learned A.D.J.-VI, Hazaribag. Bail application of the petitioner was earlier rejected by this Court vide B.A. No. 9214/2024 by order dated 28.01.2025. On 26.05.2024, the petitioner alongwith co-accused persons had entered into the house of the informant. It is alleged that the accused persons were trying to sexually assault the informant and when she resisted, this petitioner inflicted knife injury on her person. Learned counsel on behalf of the petitioner submitted that during trial, two witnesses have been examined and they have stated that it was Hemant Saw who had inflicted knife injury on the person of the informant. Considering the fact that there is specific allegation against the petitioner that he had inflicted knife injury on the person of the informant while she resisted, I am not inclined to release the petitioner, on bail. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the appellant is rejected. (Ambuj Nath, J.) BS/-
