IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.25835 of 2009 GIRJA SINGH @ GIRIJA YADAV, son of late Subedar Yadav, resident of village Chhatrapura, P.S. Chauri, District Bhojpur Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3. 12.10.2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and the counsel for the State. Considering the fact that a brand new motorcycle Yamaha of the year 2004 is alleged to have been purchased by the petitioner in the year 2004 in second hand and recovery of a forged owner book from his possession without showing the name of the original owner from which it was purchased and the said owner book even in the name of the petitioner did not bear the signature of the District Transport Officer, this Court finds it difficult to accept the defence of the petitioner that it was purchased by him from co-accused Mangaru Yadav. In that view of the matter, this Court would not direct for release of the petitioner on bail at present but then as the petitioner in custody since 21.5.2009 is said to have no criminal antecedent, this Court would direct for his being released on bail after completing six months of his 2 judicial custody i.e. on or after 21.11.2009 on his furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (Rs. Ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Bhojpur at Ara in Chauri P.S.Case No. 31/2009, subject to the condition the petitioner shall remain present in course of trial and his continued absence for two consecutive dates will entail automatic consequence of cancellation of bail.
