IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.36091 of 2009 JAISHANKAR YADAV, Son of Akshya Yadav, resident of Village-Sirsiya, P.S. Piprakothi, District- East Champaran. Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 3/11/2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State. The allegation under section 379 of the Indian Penal Code against the petitioner gets slightly more serious, inasmuch as, it is said that the truck with timber/wood seized by the government officials authorized under the Forest Act in course of its being taken away to the office of the authority under the Forest Act was sought to be forcibly snatched and dispossessed by a gang of person including the petitioner. Counsel for the petitioner, of course, has tried to impress that such seizure was not supported by any person nor a copy of the seizure list is made available in the case diary, but then it would be clear that the case itself was filed after such seizure was made and therefore that separate seizure list may or may not be in the case diary which would be required to be proved only at the time of trial. That being so, this Court, for the time being, keeping in view that the petitioner has remained in custody only for a period of little more than two months, is not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. The petitioner may renew his prayer for bail after completing six months of his judicial custody, i.e. on or after 23rd February, 2010. Abhay Kumar (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
