Case No. 65 of 2004 under Section 302/34 of the IPC. Submission of the counsel for the petitioner is that the FIR with regard to the murder of the father of the informant was lodged against unknown. On due investigation certain persons were found to be suspect. So far as present petitioner is concerned, it is stated that one Raj Kumar Singh in his confessional statement stated that the petitioner was one of the persons of his gang and he helped him in the crime. Submission of the counsel is that besides that confessional statement there is no other evidence to link the petitioner with the said crime. It is argued that Raj Kumar Singh, on whose confessional statement this petitioner has been made an accused, has already been enlarged on bail by this Court and in that view of the matter, his prayer for bail should also be considered. Keeping the above submissions in mind and the nature of allegation, let petitioner Chhathu Rai be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.20,000/- (ten thousand) with 2 two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Begusarai in connection with Bachhwara P.S.
