IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.32156 of 2008 SUDHIR SINGH @ KRISHNA KANT RAI … … Petitioner Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR … Opp. Party For the petitioner: Shri Rana Prtap Sing, Sr. Advocate With Cr.Misc. No.26594 of 2008 NAVIN SINGH … … Petitioner Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR … … Opp. Party For the petitioner: Shri A.K.Thakur For the State: Shri Dashrth Mehta, APP ( in both the cases) ----------- 7. 17.11.2008 Heard Shri Rana Pratap Singh, learned Counsel for petitioner Sudhir Singh alias Krishna Kant Rai and Shri Ajay Kumar Thakur, learned counsel for petitioner Navin Singh as also Shri Dashrath Mehta, learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State. Both the petitions arise of Teghra P.S.Case No. 171 of 2007 under Sections 364 and 302 of the Indian penal Code. The written report of the wife of the deceased is the basis of the case. In that, she alleged that a Bolero vehicle came to her house from which different persons including petitioner Sudhir Singh alias Krishna Kant Rai and 2 accused Pappu Singh came out and after enquiring about the wellbeing of the deceased took him away on the pretext of paying the borrowed amount of Rs. 40,000/- The deceased did not return. It is alleged that some of the family members of the informant, namely, her Devar, her father-in-law and his brother went out in search of the deceased and in that connection contacted the petitioner Sudhir Singh also where four other persons were sitting and petitioner Sudhir Singh is alleged to have stated to one Murari who happens to be a family member of the deceased that he should not vex him any more and that he had murdered the deceased and he would also, in case of pestering him about it, murder the said Murari. The Same statement is repeated by all the others with some addition that the four persons who were sitting with the petitioner included petitioner Navin Singh also. The contention is that it is difficult to accept that the person could come out with the story that he had murdered 3 someone and further that similarly situated accused, like, Neeraj Singh and Kamaldev Singh have been admitted to bail by a Bench of this Court in Cr. Misc. Nos. 57837 of 2007 and 5732 of 2008. Regard being had to the facts and the contention as also the materials so far in the case diary, let both the petitioners Sudhir Singh alias Krishna Kant Rai and Navin Singh be released on their furnishing bonds each of Rs. 10,000/-( ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Begusarai, in the above noted case on the following conditions: 1. That the petitioners shall report to the local Police Station every fortnight which attendance shall be recorded by the Officer-in-charge of the Police Station in the Station diary entry, 2. that in case of the petitioners being found indulging in any offence and a report being made to the court, the court below shall assume that this order had not been passed and steps shall be taken for 4 canceling the bonds and committing them to custody; 3. in case the petitioners are found intimidating the witnesses including the informant or threatening them or influencing the ultimate trial of the case, in that case also condition no. 2 shall apply. Let the copy of this order be sent to S.P., Begusarai for information and compliance. Kanth ( Dharnidhar Jha, J.)
