IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.43393 of 2008 BAL MUKUND MANDAL, Son of late Shiv Nandan Mandal, Resident of village – Anantpur, P.S. – Rajoun, District - Banka Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3. 10.2.2009 Heard Sri Ranjan Kumar Jha, Advocate for the petitioner and Sri Dasrath Mehta, APP for the State. The contention is that the petitioner in spite of being in custody in a case under Section 395 of the IPC was not put on TIP and he is languishing there since 6.10.2007, merely because Rs.1,000/- was recovered from him, which was said to be the part of the stolen amount of Rs.9,100/-. The further contention is that the recovery appears disproportionate, inasmuch as, 19 unknown persons were alleged to have looted the passengers of the bus. Regard being had to the period of custody, let petitioner Bal Mukund Mandal 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 Additional Sessions Judge, F.T.C. I, Bhagalpur in connection with Sessions Trial No. 261 of 2008 arising out of Bhagalpur Rail P.S. Case No. 66 of 2007. DKS/ (Dharnidhar Jha, J.)
