IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.5618 of 2010 Nandlal Chaudhary,Mosafir Chaudhary, Sadhu Chaudhary @ Jitendra Chaudhary @ Sadhu, Nandjee Chaudhary, Harendra Chaudhary and Surendra Chaudhary @ Surendra Yadav Versus STATE OF BIHAR . 2 5.4.2010 KHAN Heard counsel for the petitioners and the State. The petitioners apprehend their arrest in a case under sections 341, 323/34 of the Penal Code and section 3(v),(x),(xi) of the SC/ST Act. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that no offence under section 3(v), (x) (xi) of the SC/ST has been made out. The other allegations under sections 341 and 323 of the Penal Code are bailable. Having considered the facts and circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to petitioner no.1 Nandlal Chaudhary. His prayer for anticipatory bail is rejected. However, if he surrenders and pray for regular bail, the same would be considered on its own merits. So far as prayer for anticipatory bail of petitioner nos.2,3,4,5 and 6 namely Mosafir Chaudhary, Sadhu Chaudhary @ Jitendra Chaudhary @ Sadhu, Nandjee Chaudhary, Harendra Chaudhary and Surendra Chaudhary @ Surendra Yadav are concerned, they are directed to be released on anticipatory bail, in the event of their arrest/surrender, in connection with Hussainganj P.S. Case No.138 of 2009 on furnishing bail bonds of Rs.5,000/- each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Siwan. (S.P.Singh,J) - 2 -
