Submission of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that without application of Section 12 of Juvenile Justice (care and protection) Act, the quantity was justifying anyone to bail for the period for which petitioner had remained in custody but in the name of chance of his having associations, his prayer has been refused. I also agree with the submission of the learned counsel to the extent that the period of custody in face of quantity of country made liquor justifies the petitioner for grant of bail which has not been taken into consideration while rejecting the prayer of the petitioner. Accordingly, the application is allowed and the impugned Judgment dated 02.07.2009 passed by the learned Sessions Judge, Begusarai in Cr. App. No. 66 of 2009 is set aside and at the same time, the order dated 08.06.2009 passed by the Juvenile Justice Board, Begusarai in connection with Garhpura P.S.
