The allegation is in respect of a fraud which relates to an account which was created for the first time on 3.4.2003, i.e.,one month prior to the posting of the petitioner in the Parihar Branch of the Co-operative Bank and the further allegation is that by fraudulent operations, several cheques were shown collected and huge amount totaling to Rs. 6,10,110/- was siphoned off the assets of the Bank. Learned Additional Public Prosecutor has referred to many paragraphs of the case 2 diary and has fairly conceded that the date since when the petitioner was posted in the Branch of the concerned Bank and defrauding did not go hand in hand and even if the petitioner was posted there it could not be said that he had the knowledge of defrauding or had any hand in connivance with the real culprits. Regard being had to the above facts and circumstances, let the above named petitioner be directed to be released from custody on his furnishing a bond of Rs. 10,000/-( ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the Sub- divisional Judicial Magistrate (Sadar), Sitamarhi, in Parihar P.S.Case No. 21 of 2004.
