Petitioner is languishing in jail custody since 18.08.2010 in connection with Nanpur P.S. Case No. 153 of 2010 registered under Sections 364 A/34 of the Indian Penal Code. It would appear from perusal of the impugned order, case diary as well as from submissions of the parties that for the first time name of this petitioner appeared in the statement of victim, who stated that while he had been made captive in a room, two old persons were taking the name of this petitioner and one Hari Shanker. After the above stated statement, the petitioner was arrested and, allegedly, one bag containing some cash and one mobile was recovered from a room in which it is stated that the victim had been made captive. The contention of learned counsel for the petitioner is that the seized mobile does not belong to the petitioner and there is nothing on the entire case dairy that any call of ransom was made through the seized mobile. It is further contended by him that the petitioner has not been put on Test Identification Parade as yet whereas he is languishing in jail custody since long and so far as criminal antecedent of the petitioner is concerned, it has specifically been pleaded at Para-11 of this application that petitioner does not have any criminal antecedent. 2 Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances as well as submissions of the parties, let the petitioner 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 Sub Divisional Judicial Magistrate, Pupari at Sitamarhi in connection with Nanpur P.S.
