IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.17974 of 2009 SHATRUNJAY SHARAN SINHA & ANR Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 18.06.2009. Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned counsel for the State. This petition for anticipatory bail has been filed by the petitioners, who are father and son and are accused for offences punishable under Sections 406 and 420 of the Indian Penal Code. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the allegation is that the petitioners had taken land of the complainant on lease but have not paid the rent and subsequently, the son of the complainant also became a partner in the business of the petitioners and spent some amount in the business of brick kiln but when the business ran in loss, the said amount was also not refunded to the son of the complainant. Learned counsel for the petitioners also avers that no criminal offence is made out and the dispute is purely civil in nature and the instant case has been filed illegally merely to coerce the petitioners to succumb to the nefarious intention of the complainant. Considering the facts and circumstances of this case as well as the arguments of the parties, this petition is allowed. In case of surrender/arrest within fifteen days from the date of receipt of a copy of this order in the court below, petitioners, namely Shatrunjay Sharan Sinha and Awanish Kumar shall be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs.10,000/-(Rupees ten thousand) - 2 - each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Sri Anil Kumar learned Judicial Magistrate, Ist Class, Gaya in connection with Complaint Case No. 754 of 2008, subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure. kanchan (S.
