IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.20620 of 2009 RAM KRISHNA KUMAR @ RAM KRISHNA PRASAD SON OF LATE LDULARCHAND PRASAD RESIDENT OF VILLAGE PANDAV CHAK,P.S.NOORSARAI,DISTRICT NALANDA AT PRESENT BRANCH MANAGER, MADHYA BIHAR GRAMIN BANK,ROH,DISTRICT NAWADA Versus STATE OF BIHAR TRHU. VIG. ----------- 2/ 23.7.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel appearing for the Vigilance. The petitioner seeks bail in Vigilance Case No. 20 of 2009 (Special Case No. 14 of 2009) registered for offences under Sections 7,3(2) read with Section 13(1)(d) of the Prevention of Corruption Act. Allegation is that the petitioner demanded Rs.3,000/- for advancing Kisan Credit loan to complainant Lorik Yadav as he has to give the share to Field Officer. The complainant refused to pay the bribe amount and informed the Vigilance. The Vigilance deputed a verifier for verification who submitted the report after finding the allegation to be true. Accordingly, a trapping team was organized, prepared pre-trap memorandum and thereafter the petitioner was arrested with bribe money of Rs.3,000/-. His hands were washed and the colour of water changed into pink. A search-cum-seizure list was prepared and a copy of which was given to the petitioner. Submission is that there was no such application of the complainant, so he was having no grievance with regard to sanction of Kisan Credit loan. There was no occasion for the petitioner to demand any money from the complainant. The petitioner has been made victim of conspiracy. The fact remains that the petitioner was 2 arrested while he was accepting bribe money and the said currency notes were found to be the same which were mentioned in pre-trap memorandum. Considering all these, presently, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, his prayer for bail is rejected. However, the petitioner may renew his prayer for bail after one year, if by that time the trial is not concluded. Tahir/- ( Shyam Kishore Sharma, J.)
