IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.30936 of 2008 UPENDRA RAI @ CHAMAKU RAI Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3. 27.08.2008 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. It appears that on previous occasion considering his prayer for bail under the Arms Act and Section 414 of the Penal Code, the Court declined to grant him bail only for reasons of his antecedent of three more cases. On that ground he has remained in custody since 2.6.2006. The Court considers it appropriate in the given nature of the offence and the period of custody to enlarge the petitioner, Upendra Rai @ Chamaku Rai on bail on his furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 10,000/- (Rupees ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of C.J.M., Bhojpur, Ara in Sahar P.S. Case No. 38 of 2006. The witnesses appear to be primarily official from the first information report. Let summons to the prosecution witnesses issue to the office of the Director General of Police, Patna, who shall remain answerable for appearance of the prosecution witnesses to depose in the trial so that the same be concluded at an early date preferably within six months from the date of receipt and/or presentation of a copy of this order. The petitioner shall be required to be physically present on each date in the trial unless the court below on an application made for the purpose in its wisdom considers it appropriate to grant exemption on any particular single day.
