IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.39140 of 2008 ASHOK CHAUDHARY Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- with Cr.Misc. No.43163 of 2008 UMA RAM @ UMESH RAM @ UMA SHANKAR RAM Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- WITH Cr.Misc. No.41090 of 2008 1. Mukesh Tiwary 2. Sanjeev Tiwary Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 16.10.2008 Heard Mr. Dharmaveer, learned counsel for the petitioner in Cr. Misc. Case no.39140 of 2008 and Mr. D. Mehta, learned A.P.P. None appears on behalf of the petitioners in Cr. Misc. case nos. 43163 of 2008 and 41090 of 2008 respectively. It is a case probably to justify the illegal detention of the petitioners as also for illegally intercepting the validly possessed licensed vehicle on road. The above observation could be justified merely by the fact that the informant, who is a police officer, has said that he asked the four occupants of the vehicle to produce documents justifying possession of their cellular phones. One does not know whether one is living in a democracy where rule of law prevails for the citizens in the country which is ruled by authoritarian police. Let four petitioners, namely, Ashok Chaudhary, Uma Ram @ Umesh Ram @ Uma Shankar Ram, Mukesh Tiwary and Sanjeev Tiwary, be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.3,000/- - 2 - (Three thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the C.J.M., Gopalganj, in connection with Manjhagarh P.S. case no.113 of 2008. sudip ( Dharnidhar Jha,J )
