IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CR. REVISION No.809 of 2010 TULO PASWAN @ MANJESH KUMAR, SON OF BRAHMDEO PASWAN, RESIDENT OF VILLAGE- DAFARPUR, P.S.- NAOKOTHI, DISTRICT- BEGUSARAI UNDER THE GUARDIANSHIP OF FATHER :-- PETITIONER . Versus STATE OF BIHAR:----OPPOSITE PARTY . ----------- 3. 01.06.2010. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. 2. In compliance of my order dated 31.5.2010 counsel for the petitioner has filed supplementary affidavit placing on record order dated 13.01.2010 passed by the Principal Member, Juvenile Justice Board, Begusarai in Naokothi P.S.Case No. 49 of 2009 appertaining to G.R.No. 1459 of 2009, Annexure-2, whereunder petitioner has been declared as juvenile on the date of occurrence of the said case i.e. 15.05.2009. The prayer of the petitioner for grant of bail, however, has been rejected by the Juvenile Justice Board under order dated 25.01.2010 as the Board was of the opinion that if released on bail petitioner is likely to mix up with the other hardened criminals. Aforesaid order of the Juvenile Justice Board has also been affirmed in appeal by the Additional Sessions Judge-VI, Begusarai in Criminal Appeal No. 09 of 2010/01 of 2010. It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that the finding of the Juvenile Justice Board as also the appellate court that if petitioner is released on bail in connection with the present case, he is likely to mix up with other hardened criminals is mere ipse dixit of the authorities as nothing substantial has been stated under the impugned orders either by the Principal Member, Juvenile Justice Board or the appellate court which will suggest that petitioner is likely to mix up with other hardened criminals. As no facts has been stated in the orders passed by the courts - 2 - below which would suggest that petitioner is likely to mix up with the hardened criminals in the event of release on bail, I set aside the order dated 25.01.2010 passed by the Juvenile Justice Board, Begusarai in Naokothi P.S.Case No. 49 of 2009, G.R.No. 1459 of 2009 as also the order dated 16.02.2010 passed by Addl. Sessions Judge, VI, Begusarai in Criminal Appeal No. 09 of 2010/01 of 2010 and direct that petitioner, Tulo Paswan @ Manjesh Kumar be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 5,000/- (Five thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Juvenile Justice Board, Begusarai in connection with Naokothi P.S.Case No. 49 of 2009, G.R.No. 1459 of 2009. The Cr. Revision Application is, accordingly, disposed of. P.K.P. (V.N.Sinha,J.)
