IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr. Misc. No.16179 of 2010 PRITAM MAHTO son of Late Janak Mahto Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3/ 02.07.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner seeks bail in a case instituted for the offence under sections 302, 201/34 of the Indian Penal Code. The deceased happens to be the son-in-law of the petitioner and suspicion was raised against him of having murdered the son-in-law since the informant just before the occurrence had seen him beating up the boy. Subsequently, when the deceased was found hanging on a tree, she suspected that the petitioner was involved in the occurrence. There appears to be no eye witness to the occurrence and even during trial the informant has only raised suspicion and merely supported her case in the First Information Report. Considering the same, let the petitioner, above named, be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.5,000/- (five thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the 7th Additional Sessions Judge, Muzaffarpur, in connection with Sessions Trial No. 589 of 2009 arising out of Saraiya (Jaitpur) P.S. Case No.158 of 2008, (i) That one of the bailors will be a close relative of the petitioner, who will give an affidavit giving genealogy as to how he is related with the petitioner. The bailors will undertake to furnish information to the court about any change in the address of the petitioner, and (ii) That the petitioner will be well represented on each date and if he fails to do so on two consecutive dates, his bail will be liable to be cancelled.
