PARTY ----------- 2. 17.11.2008 Heard Sri Pramod Kumar, Advocate for the petitioner and Sri D. Mehta, APP for the State. The petitioner was the executing agent of a scheme and is said to have reduced the thickness of the concrete on top of drainage by half. The total defalcated amount calculated by the technical authorities came to a bit over Rs.18,000/-. That money has been deposited in the Nazarat. Considering all these facts while dismissing the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner, I had directed the learned Sessions Judge to consider the regular prayer for bail of the petitioner without any prejudice. The petitioner is in custody after having surrendered. The contention is that the petitioner has been put under suspension and the departmental enquiry has to be proceeded against. The further contention is that there was no loss caused to the exchequer on account of paying up the estimated defalcated amount. Regard being had to the above facts and - 2 - circumstances and considering that the petitioner is a Panchayat Sewak and is in custody, let petitioner Chandra Bilash Sharma be released from custody on furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Gaya in connection with Paraiya P.s.
