IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.50247 of 2008 RAM BABU PASWAN Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3 26.3.2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State. While involvement of the petitioner in the alleged offence merely on the basis of the confessional statement will not be appropriate but then the criminal history of the petitioner needs to be looked into. This Court would, therefore, direct for grant of bail of the petitioner on a condition that the trial court before granting bail to the petitioner would verify the criminal antecedent of the petitioner and would release the petitioner on bail in connection with S.T. No. 522 of 2008 arising out of Samastipur (T) P.S. Case No. 537 of 2007 on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Additional District & Sessions Judge, F.T.C. No.11, Samastipur only if there is no criminal antecedent of the petitioner. With the aforementioned observations/ direction, this application is disposed of. Rsh (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
