IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.16870 of 2010 HARI YADAV, S/o Late Shiva Yadav, R/o village-Nanhu Bigha, P.S.-Akbarpur, District- Nawada. ……………..Petitioner Versus STATE OF BIHAR ……..Opposite Party For the petitioner : Mr. Sudhir Kumar Sinha, Advocate. For the State : Mr. Binod Kumar, A.P.P. ----------- 3 23-06-2010 Heard both sides. Petitioner, who is father-in-law of the victim, has approached this court once again seeking bail in a case instituted under diverse section of penal code including 304B IPC. Earlier on 08-07-2009, his prayer for bail was considered and rejected by this court with liberty to renew the same after nine months, if the trial in the meanwhile does not commence. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the husband of the victim has been granted privilege of bail by this court vide order dated 17-06-2010 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 20715/2010. It appears from the impugned order that the trial has already commenced and few witnesses have been examined on behalf of the prosecution. It is contended that the petitioner is aged about 75 years. Having regard to the facts that the husband of the victim has already been released on bail and that the petitioner is the father-in-law and is aged about 75 years, this court is persuaded to extend him to privilege of bail. Let the petitioner above named is directed to be 2 released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Additional Sessions Judge, Fast Track Court-II, Nawadah in connection with Sessions Trial No. 347 of 2009/297 of 2009 arising out of Akbarpur P.S. Case No. 55 of 2008; subject to the conditions that (i) one of the bailors shall be his own close family members; (ii) the petitioner shall appear in person on each date fixed at the trial. In case of default in such appearance on two consecutive dates the trial court shall have liberty to cancel the bail bond of the petitioner and secure his arrest in accordance with law.
