IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.18717 of 2010 RAM JHA, S/o Late Nako Jha, R/o Village -Dayalpur, Police Station -Bihpur, District-Bhagalpur ……… Petitioner. Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR … Opposite Party ----------- 3 23-06-2010 Heard Petitioner named above has renewed his prayer for grant of bail in the light of liberty granted to him by this court on his earlier bail application bearing Cr. Misc. No. 21753 of 2009(Anneuxre-1). On perusal of the said order, it appears that this court had recorded the submission that similarly placed co- accused persons were released on bail. Petitioner’s prayer for bail was rejected on the ground that he evaded arrest for over a decade. Referring to the order dated 08-03-2010 passed in S.T. No. 193/10 (Annexure-5), learned counsel for the petitioner submits that charges have already been framed. Petitioner is in custody since 02-03-2009. It is contended that he is an old ailing person. In the facts and circumstances, the petitioner named above is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned Additional District Judge-II, Naugachia in connection with S.T. No. 193/10(arising out of Naugachia P.S. Case No. 315/92); subject to the conditions that (i) one of the bailors shall be his own close family members; (ii) the petitioner shall appear 2 in person on the date(s) fixed at the trial. In case of default in such appearance on two consecutive dates the trial court shall have liberty to cancel the bail bond of the petitioner and secure his arrest in accordance with law.
