IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.22141 of 2009 BINDESHWARI RAM Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 10.09.2009 Heard counsel for the parties. The petitioner has approached this Court seeking anticipatory bail in a case instituted under sections 177, 420,406 and 120B IPC. The allegations is that a list was prepared in a collusive manner in respect of persons who were to be given the flood relief by way of allotting the Indira Awas. The list contained two names which were subsequently not found to be eligible. It appears from the records that those two persons subsequently did deposit the amount received by them. It is contended that the petitioner who is/was serving a Gram Sewak was not posted at the said place when the list of beneficiaries was prepared in the year 2005. Records reveal that after lodging of the case, the matter remained pending investigation for a long time. The Dy.S.P. initially found the case untrue. Subsequently, the S.P. took a different view. Having regard to these facts, this Court is persuaded to extend the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner Let the petitioner abovenamed in the event of arrest/surrender within four weeks from today, be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.10,000/- with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of CJM, Supaul in connection with Supaul P.S. Case No. 66/06 subject to the conditions as laid down under section 2 438(2) Cr.P.C. with further condition that the petitioner shall co- operate with investigation and that he shall appear on each date fixed at the trial. In case of default on two consecutive dates, the trial court shall be at liberty to cancel his bail bonds. hr ( Kishore K. Mandal )
