IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.9327 of 2009 YASHWANT KUMAR S/o Lalan Kumar Patel @ Lalan Bahadur Patel, R/o Village- Dannagar, P.S. Khagaria, District- Khagaria -----------------Petitioner Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------------Opposite Party ----------- 2. 19.3.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the counsel appearing on behalf of the State. The petitioner is an accused in a case under Sections 409, 419, 420 and 120(B) of the Indian Penal Code. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner was appointed on a temporary basis as a Field Officer in Asmita Microfin Ltd. A sum of Rs. 7 lakhs was to be deposited in Axis Bank. Accordingly, the Branch Manager of the company aforesaid asked one Subhash Yadav to prepare the document so that the money could be deposited. Eventually, Subhash Yadav did not deposit the money and he has alleged that it is this petitioner, who was entrusted with the money and the petitioner had defalcated the said amount. Learned counsel further submits that Subhash Yadav is already in jail custody. So far as this petitioner is concerned, he is not a regular employee of the company and, therefore, apart from the statement of the co-accused Subhash Yadav, there is no other material to implicate him in this case. The submission made by learned counsel for the petitioner is a good ground for grant of regular bail and, therefore, - 2 - this Court directs that the petitioner should surrender in the Court below within one week and seek for regular bail in Kotwali (Tilka Manjhi) P.S. Case No. 796 of 2008 before the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Bhagalpur. P. Kumar (Sheema Ali Khan, J.)
