IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.49316 of 2008 Hamid Raja Ansari Son of late Gulam Mustufa Ansari resident of Village- Attaulhpur, P.S. Lalganj, Dsitrict- Vaishali ------------ Petitioner. Versus The State of Bihar ------------- Opposite Party. ---------- 4. 17.3.2009 Heard Mr. Yogesh Chandra Verma for the petitioner, and Mr. Rajendra Singh Shastri, learned Additional Public Prosecutor. The sole petitioner has preferred this application for grant of bail in Bidupur P.S. Case No. 193 of 2007, dated 11.6.2007, registered under sections 409, 384, 420, 468 and 469 of the Indian penal Code. This is the petitioner’s second attempt. His previous bail application bearing Cr. Misc. No. 34174 of 2008 (Hamid Raja Ansari Vrs. The State of Bihar ) was rejected by order dated 28.8.2008 (Annexure-6). It was stated in the order that the investigation is still pending. While pressing this application, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the investigation has been concluded and charge-sheet has been submitted. He further submits that he is in custody since 10.6.2008. He also submits that he is a Government servant and, therefore, there is no chance of his absconding and evading the trial. Learned Additional Public prosecutor has opposed the application for bail. We have perused the materials on record and considered the submissions of learned counsel for the parties. It appears that the petitioner has been charge-sheeted under the aforesaid sections. The charge-sheet, inter alia, states as follows: 2 “;g dk.M oknh lqeu dqekj] vapykf/kdkjh fcnqiqj iz[k.M ds fyf[kr fjiksVZ ij ntZ fd;k x;k gSA ftlesa xat iRFkjk ?kkV ls pspj [kkylk ¼va”k½ rd lSjkr dh cUnkscLrh ugha gksus ds dkj.k jktLodeZpkjh dks foHkkxh; olwyh gsrq jktLo olwyh esa yxk;k x;k FkkA ftuds }kjk vfu;ferrk dh x;h] ?kksVkyk fd;k x;k rFkk jaxnkjh ds :Ik esa Hkh tehankjh VSDl crkrs gq;s v”kksd flag ,oa vt; jk; }kjk voS/k :i ls voS/k olwyh djus dk vkjksi yxk;k x;k gSA” It has transpired in course of investigation that the petitioner printed his own receipt book, and had been extracting money from people, and arrogating the Government money. He is Karamchari in Bidupur block. In the facts and circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to release the petitioner on bail. It is accordingly rejected. Vinay/ ( S. K. Katriar ,J. )
