IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.14501 of 2009 RAJU YADAV, son of late Bijo Yadav, resident of village – Bishanpur, Police Station – Sono (Charkapathar), District – Jamui. Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 04. 17.12.2009 Petitioner was taken in custody on 1.12.2008 in Sono P S Case No. 116 of 2000 which was registered under sections 147, 148, 149, 341, 342, 323, 325, 504, 295A, 379, 426, 506 of the Indian Penal Code and section 27 of the Arms Act. Submission of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that petitioner had no knowledge of the case despite being named in the FIR and that is the reason why no action was taken by him in relation to the case which was instituted in the year 2000. Submission of the counsel and the explanation does not seem to be very convincing but there is a possibility that the petitioner has been evading law because there seems to be five different cases instituted against them at different point of times but looking at the nature of the allegation and the period petitioner has spent in custody, let the petitioner Raju Yadav be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.20,000/- with two sureties of the like amount to the satisfaction of the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Jamui, in Sono P S Case No. 116 of 2000. One of the surety will be executed by the wife of the petitioner on due identification and the other by either an elected representative or a government servant. Petitioner will ensure his participation in the trial of the case and shall not abscond from law any more. He shall appear on each and - 2 - every date fixed by the trial court either through himself or through his counsel. Any breach may disentitle him from the privilege of bail. rkp (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J)
