Versus The State Of Bihar ----------- 5 26.09.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned Additional Public Prosecution for State. It would appear from perusal of the first information report of Gobardhana P.S. Case No. 23 of 1996 that the aforesaid case was lodged in the year 1996 for the offence under Section 364 A of the Indian Penal Code against unknown persons. It appears that in course of investigation the name of this petitioner came in the aforesaid case. The contention of learned counsel for the petitioner is that no doubt petitioner was dreaded criminal but he voluntarily surrendered before the police officials in the year 2008 and has already left the criminal world. It is also pointed out by him that several persons had surrendered along with the petitioner in the year 2008 and the aforesaid persons have already been granted privilege of bail by different Benches of this Court in different cases instituted against them, though they had also possessed criminal history. In course of hearing, learned counsel for the petitioner produced certain orders of this Court passed in different criminal miscellaneous cases. It is further contended by him that so far as merit of the case, the name of this petitioner has come in this case on the basis of conversions of the miscreants and apart from the 2 aforesaid fact there is nothing against the petitioner. Petitioner is in jail custody since 06.12.2008 and it appears from the report of trial Court that charge has already been framed against petitioner on 22.12.2010 but up till now not a single prosecution witness has been examined. Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances as well as submissions of the parties, let the petitioner, above named, be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of IIIrd Additional District & Sessions Judge, Bagaha, West Champaran in connection with Sessions Trial No. 489 of 2010 arising out of Gobardhana P.S.
