IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.32612 of 2010 SUKAN RAI & ORS Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 29.10.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners as well as learned counsel for the state assisted by the complainant. It would appear from perusal of the contents of complaint petition that a dispute took place between the parties on the point of payment of wages and in that course, the petitioner abused the complainant. In my view, the application of provision of S.C. & S.T. (Prevention of Atrocities) Act appears to be doubtful. Accordingly, this anticipatory bail petition is allowed. In the event of arrest or surrender before the court of Sub Divisional Judicial Magistrate, Sitamarhi within 30 days from the date of receipt of the order, the petitioners, namely, Sukan Rai, Shivjee Rai, Bala Rai, Jagarnath Rai and Sanjay Rai shall be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs 10,000/- (ten thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each in connection with Complaint Case No. 23 of 2010 subject to condition as laid down u/S 438(2) of the Cr.P.C. AKV/- ( Hemant Kumar Srivastava,J.)
