The petitioner is accused in a case under sections 384, 387, 323, 379 and 427 of the Penal Code. The allegation is that the petitioner demanded Rangdari from the informant. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner’s father contested the election of Mukhiya and informant lost the same. It is submitted that it is highly unbelievable that a person can demand Rangdari from the Mukhiya. Learned counsel for the informant, on the other hand, submits that there are more than one case against the petitioner and the petitioner has been demanding Rangdari from school teachers as well. In reply counsel for the petitioner submits that since teachers are directly dependent on Mukhiya for forwarding their salary bill, it is not surprising that the case of the informant is supported by teachers of the villager. Having considered the rival submissions, the petitioner is directed to be released on bail in connection with Ara Mufassil P.S.
