The allegation of the informant as against the petitioner, who is Up Sarpanch, was that he had taken money for allotment of Indira Awas to the informant. House not having been allotted, when refund was asked for, informant was beaten up. This Court, in Cr Misc No 4398 of 2011 by order dated 11.02.2011, had directed, inter alia, that the petitioner would be released on bail upon compromise being filed in the Court below. Learned counsel for the petitioner points out that though petitioner was ready to compromise, the informant did not agree and, as such, inspite of bail bond being furnished, the learned Judicial Magistrate, 01st Class, Rosera, by order dated 25.02.2011, has refused to release the petitioner on bail. Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, I direct the petitioner to deposit Rs 5,000/- in cash in the Court which the informant would be at liberty to withdraw without prejudice to her claim and without prejudice to the petitioner. Upon deposit of Rs 5,000/- in cash in the Court, the petitioner would be released on bail on his furnishing bonds of Rs 10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Judicial Magistrate, 01st Class, Rosera, District – Samastipur in Singhia Police Station Case No 45 of 2010.
