IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.1435 of 2011 SMT. PUNAM SINHA Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ------ 2. 10.02.2011. Heard learned counsels for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner being the supervisor of Aagan Bari Sevika Centre of Amnaur Block is apprehending her arrest in a case registered under Sections 161, 165, 467, 468, 469, 470, 471,409 and 420 of the I.P.C. The informant being the Child Development Project Officer was suspicious that her signature had been forged by the petitioner on vouchers. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that payment through vouchers were being approved by the members of the committee and thereafter it used to be verified by the supervisor then the Child Development Project Officer used to counter sign the same and then payments were being made. From a bare perusal of the F.I.R., it appears that the informant was only suspicious about her signature being forged. It is further contended that the informant previously stopped the payment of salary of petitioner and when the petitioner made a complaint and show cause was issued to the informant then payments were made and that was the reason for filing of the present case as a retaliatory measure. Mr. Dashrath Mehta, learned counsel for the State, - 2 - submits that accusation of forged signature of the Child Development Project Officer is serious in nature but there is nothing on record to suggest that the alleged signature has been verified by an expert. It is expected from the Investigating Agency that it get it verified from an expert. Considering the nature of accusation in the background of dispute between the petitioner and the informant and the fact that the petitioner is a lady, let the petitioner, above named, be released on bail in the event of arrest or surrender before the learned court below within a period of twelve weeks from today in connection with Aurai P.S. Case No. 86 of 2010 on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/-(Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned C.J.M., Muzaffarpur, subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of Code of Criminal Procedure.
