IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.51426 of 2008 NARENDRA MOHAN JHA Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3 4.5.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The submission of learned counsel for the petitioner is that petitioner is apprehending his arrest for the alleged irregularities and illegalities committed in issuing cheques to the beneficiaries as the same were not issued to the members of scheduled caste and scheduled tribe. The submission of learned counsel for the petitioner is that only entitled persons were identified for Indira Awas Yojna and cheques were issued to them for which said liability was fixed upon the petitioner. If really petitioner’s act is found sufficient for fixing criminal liability even then his arrest at the moment cannot be justified. I agree with the submission. Having regard to the facts and circumstances, in the event of arrest or surrender within one month from today in Charpokhari P.S.Case No.125 of 2007, the above - 2 - named petitioner shall be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Arrah, subject to the condition as laid down under section 438(2) Cr.P.C. (Mandhata Singh,J.) AI
