IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.43179 of 2009 Tarkeshwar Sharma, S/o Late Nathuni Sharma, R/v- Rewatliya @ Kewatliya, P.S. Darauli, Distt. Siwan. At present, Bigrahpur, Patna Guarrage, Jaipur, Dhanuki, Patna. -------- Petitioner Versus The State of Bihar ------- Opp. Party ----------- 2 18.12.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State. Considering the nature of allegation for an offence under Sections 406/420 and other allied Sections of the Indian Penal Code and the implication of the petitioner only to the extent that he was a party in acceding to the request of the main accused, namely, Divesh Kumar Sinha in getting the chassis number engrossed on the engine changed through a mechanic, this Court, taking into account that the petitioner has got no criminal antecedent and has remained in custody for a period of four months, would direct for his release on bail, inasmuch as, his case stands almost on similar footing as that of the driver, namely, Abhay Kumar who was earlier granted bail by this Court by an order dated 18.11.2009 in Cr. Misc. No. 39772 of 2009. That being so, this Court would direct 2 for release of the petitioner, namely, Tarkeshwar Sharma on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of S.D.J.M., Masaurih in connection with Dhanarua P.S. Case No. 266 of 2009 (G.R. No. 831 of 2009), subject to the condition that one of the bailors shall be a close family relative of the petitioner preferably either of the parents or wife of the petitioner. It is, however, made clear that since the petitioner claims to be the owner of the garage, if now he is found to be indulging in similar activity, not only he would be liable for those cases but his present bail shall also stand cancelled.
