MCRC Short Term Bail Application No. 811 of 2010 In Bail 1 No. 179 of 2010 Hon’ble Sudhanshu Dhulia, J. Mr. Prem Kaushal, Advocate for the applicant. Mr. M.A. Khan, Brief Holder for the State of Uttarakhand. The applicant is in Jail in connection with Case Crime No. 48 of 2009, P.S. Kaladhungi, District Nainital. The instant application has been filed by the applicant (who is in Jail for approximately one year), for releasing him on short term bail, as his father has passed away on 15.9.2010 and he has to go to attend “Pipal Pani” of his father, on 26.9.2010. He has also stated that he is the eldest son of his father. Though on the aforesaid facts, this Court does not feel it necessary that the applicant be released on a short term bail as prayed, yet the “Peepal Pani” Ceremony must be attended by the applicant. Therefore, it is directed that the petitioner shall be allowed to attend the ceremony, in police custody. He would be allowed to attend the ceremony for a period of six hours during day time on 26.9.2010. After that, he will be returned and will be given back to the custody of the Jail Authorities. The Jail Authorities are directed to coordinate with the Police Authorities and see that this order is complied with and the applicant attends the “Peepal Pani” ceremony of his father on 26.9.2010 on the terms stated above. With these directions, the instant Short Bail Application is disposed of. (Sudhanshu Dhulia, J.) 24.9.2010 Rathour
