VIG. ----------- 02. 10.08.2010 Petitioner is languishing in jail since 20.05.2010 in a trap case while accepting Rs. 15,00/- for which the present case was registered under Sections 7/13(2) read with Section 13(1)(D) of the Prevention of Corruption Act. It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that the complainant alleged that in spite of the order of the superior authority the petitioner being the Amin was not making measurement of the land. It is submitted that on very next day of the order the authority has stayed the earlier order with regard to conducting the measurement of the land in view of the fact that the title suit was pending. Hence there was no occasion for the petitioner to accept the illegal gratification because he was legally not permitted to conduct the measurement. Learned counsel for the Vigilance Mr. C.M. Chaurasia submits that petitioner was caught red handed. Considering the fact that due to operation of stay the petitioner was precluded to conduct the 2 measurement and the period under custody, let the petitioner namely Shiv Shankar Roy, be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/-(ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Special Judge, Vigilance, Muzaffarpur in connection with Special Case No. 20 of 2010 arising out of Vigilance P.S.
