Jai Krishna Yadav, son of Jiwachh Yadav, resident of village- Bhorhar, P.S.- Fulkaha (Narpatganj), District- Araria. ……………Petitioners Versus The State of Bihar ………..Opposite Party ---------------------------------- 2. 23.12.2011 The accused petitioners have preferred this revision application under Section 53 of the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2000 against the order dated 11.11.2011 passed by the learned Additional Sessions Judge (F.T.C.No.1), Araria in Cr. Appeal No.22/2011, Trial No.05/2011 by which the order dated 28.01.2011 passed by the learned Juvenile Justice Board, Araria in S.G.R.No.738/2010 arising out of Narpatganj P.S.Case No.72/2010 has been confirmed and the prayer of the petitioners for grant of bail has been rejected. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and learned counsel for the State. The main contention of the learned counsel for the petitioners is that the petitioners have been declared juvenile by the learned Juvenile Justice Board. Their prayer for bail was rejected by the Juvenile Justice Board vide 2 order dated 28.01.2011. Against the said order, the petitioners preferred Cr. Appeal No.22/11, which has been dismissed by the impugned order. He has further submitted that the petitioners have been in custody since 20.08.2010 and other similarly situated co-accused has been granted bail. Learned counsel for the State could not controvert the contention of the petitioners while opposing the prayer of the petitioner. After hearing the learned counsel for both the parties and on perusal of the materials on record, it appears that the contention of the learned counsel for the petitioners is correct. Considering the facts and circumstances stated above, in my opinion, the impugned order is not fit to be sustained. The impugned order is set aside. The petitioners above-named are directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.10,000/-each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Juvenile Justice Board, Araria in S.G.R.No.738/2010 arising out of Narpatganj P.S.Case No.72/2010 on the following terms and conditions : 3 (i) One of the bailors will be the close relative of the petitioners, who will produce the petitioners in the court, if and when required. (ii) The petitioners will not indulge in similar or in any other offence. (iii) In case of their absence for two consecutive dates or in case of violation of the terms of the bail, their bail bond will be liable to be cancelled by the learned Juvenile Justice Board and they will be taken into custody. In the result, this application is allowed. V.K. Pandey ( Amaresh Kumar Lal, J.)
