IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.365 of 2011 RAMESH MAHTO, SON OF RAM NATH MAHTO Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 02 04.02.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned Public Prosecutor for the State. Petitioner seeks his bail in connection with Sessions Trial No. 488 of 2010 arising out of Parsauni P.S. Case No. 29 of 2010 registered under Sections 366A/34 of the Indian Penal Code. Although, petitioner is named in the First Information Report with direct allegation of kidnapping of a minor girl but admittedly, the victim girl returned to her home and her statement was recorded under Section 164 of the Cr.P.C. in which she has not even whispered about the so-called story of her kidnapping. It appears from perusal of impugned order of learned Additional Sessions Judge that subsequently, the victim filed an affidavit before the court below disclosing this fact that she had given statement under Section 164 of the Cr.P.C. on account of fear and on the basis of the aforesaid material, learned Additional Sessions Judge rejected the prayer of the petitioner. Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances, as well as materials available on the record above named petitioner is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 10,000/- (Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Shri A.K. Pandey, Additional Sessions Judge, Fast Track Court-VIth, Sitamarhi in connection with above stated Sessions Trial No. 488 of 2010. Shahzad (Hemant Kumar Srivastava, J)
