Public Prosecutor for the State assisted by learned counsel for the complainant. Petitioner is in jail custody since 22.11.2011 in a complaint case in which cognizance has been taken under bailable sections. It would appear from perusal of the record as well as submissions of the parties that the petitioner was granted bail by the police but he did not appear before the court below as a result of which he was declared absconder. Learned counsel for the complainant points out that process was served upon the petitioner which is evident from perusal of order sheet dated 21.12.2010. Even if it is assumed that petitioner misused privilege of bail, then also, he has sufficiently been punished by remaining in judicial custody since the above stated date. Accordingly, petitioner, Shyam Kumar Patel, is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs 10,000/- with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Sri Prabhakar Jha, Judicial Magistrate, Patnacity in Complaint Case no. 22/2009. shahid (Hemant Kumar Srivastava,J) - 2 -
