IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.1017 of 2010 RANJIT THAKUR SON OF KRISHNA THAKUR Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3. 19.2.2010 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner seeks bail in a case instituted for the offence under Sections 147, 148, 149, 353, 307, 186, 225, 120B of the Indian Penal Code and 25(1a-b), 26(ii), 27, 35 of the Arms Act. The prosecution case is that while the jail inmates were running away, they were chased by the police party, upon which a firing was made by the accused persons, in course of which two persons were arrested. The petitioner is not one of them but his name was disclosed on the confessional statement of the co- accused, who was caught at the spot. The submission is that in the facts of the case, no offence u/s.307 I.P.C would be made out since the intention was not to cause death but was to save the lives of the accused persons themselves. Under the circumstances as also the fact that the report says that the witnesses are yet to be examined, let the petitioner above named be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.5,000/- (Five thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Addl. District & Sessions Judge IIIrd, Nawada in S.Tr.No.344 of 2004 (210 of 2009) arising out of Kawakol P.S.case No.132 of 2001, subject to the conditions (i) That one of the bailors will be a close relative of the petitioner who - 2 - will give an affidavit giving genealogy as to how he is related with the petitioner and (ii) that the petitioner will be well represented on each date and if he fails to do so on two consecutive dates, his bail will be liable to be cancelled.
