IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.9380 of 2011 UPENDRA KUMAR @ UMENDR KUMAR son of Narsingh Narayan Singh, resident of village- Hardiya, P.S. Mehandia, Dist- Arwal Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ---------- 2. 25.03.2011 The petitioner is in custody since 4.6.2008 in relation to Mehandia P.S.Case No. 69 of 2006 for offence under Sections 419, 420 468 and 471 of the Indian Penal Code. The informant alleges that the petitioner sometime back, came to the village and disclosed that a lot of funds are available to the people below the poverty line for setting Indira Awash. He accordingly, assured many persons and agreed to submit applications on their behalf. It is further alleged that no money was paid to the persons and subsequently they received bank notices from which they learnt that petitioner received money on their behalf and bought a Commandeer Jeep and he also has a Rice Mill. On the other hand, the petitioner submits that the Bank has informed the Investigating Officer that the money was paid to the beneficiaries and not the petitioner. What I can say about this is 2 that in the F.I.R it is clearly mentioned that all this could not happen without the connivance of the Bank officials who are surely in league with persons to facilitate unauthorized withdrawal. Be that as it may, it is pointed out that the trial has begun and about eight witnesses have been examined. If the trial is not concluded within three months subject to the petitioner’s co-operation, petitioner should be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/-( Rupees Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Judicial Magistrate , 1st Class, Jehanabad in Mehandia P.S. case No. 69 of 2006.
