Accused applicant has applied for bail in case crime No. 278 of 2006 Under Sections 409 I.P.C., Patwari Cricle Pharkhet, District Chamoli. According to the prosecution case the applicant is a class IV employee posted in the Veterinary Hospital, Ghat, Chamoli. F.I.R. against the accused has been lodged by the Incharge Veterinary Hospital with the allegations that the accused has received Rs. 7039/- from the Chief Veterinary Officer towards the payment of employees and has not disputed the amount in the Hospital. Counsel for the applicant has submitted that the amount alleged to have been embezzled is a meager amount, which can be recovered from the applicant being a Government servant. Without expressing anything on the merit of the case, I am of the opinion that this is a fit case for bail. Let the accused applicant be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond and two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the Magistrate concerned. (Rajesh Tandon, J.)
