IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CR. REV. No.274 of 2011 KARU @ RAVI @ VIVEK KUMAR Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 03 13.05.2011 Heard both sides. Petitioner, who has been declared juvenile in conflict with law, seeks bail in a case instituted under Section 392 of the Penal Code. The informant, while going home on motor cycle, was intercepted by a group of persons who, at gun point, relieved him of his belongings including motor cycle. It is the prosecution that few days thereafter one mobile phone was recovered from the possession of the petitioner. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that neither the petitioner nor the mobile was put on T.I.P. It is submitted that he is in custody/remand home since 14.08.2010. The father of the petitioner was earlier serving as sepoy in Assam Rifles but now he has retired and is living with him. It is also contended that there is absolutely no criminal antecedent against the petitioner. Learned A.P.P., appearing on behalf of the State, on the other hand, opposed the prayer. A report from the concerned Probation Officer was called for which is placed at Flag-A. It has been reported therein that petitioner is not a habitual offender/criminal and requires strict 2 guidance. Learned counsel submits that father of the petitioner is now at home and will take full care of the petitioner if released on bail. It is pointed out that father himself has affirmed the affidavit in support of the present bail application. Having considered the submissions and on perusal of materials on record, this Court, while setting aside the impugned order(s), directs release of the petitioner, named above, on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 15,000/- (Fifteen thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the Juvenile Justice Board, Biharsharif (Nalanda) in connection with J.J.B. case no. 73 of 2010, arising out of chandi P.S. case no. 13 of 2010, subject to the following conditions:- (i) One of the bailors shall be the father of the petitioner. (ii) It shall be the duty of the said bailor to monitor the conduct/behavior of the petitioner and to produce him in Court in person as and when required therefor. In case of default in such appearance, the trial Court shall have liberty to cancel the bail bond of the petitioner and secure his arrest in accordance with law. (iii) During subsistency of the present privilege of bail, if it is found that petitioner has involved himself in another criminal case, 3 the same shall be treated as a breach of the condition of bail entailing cancellation.
