JUSTICE KISHORE KUMAR MANDAL ORAL ORDER 03-07-2015 Both the applications arise out of Maniyari P.S. case no. 124 of 2010 and as such they have been heard together with the consent of the parties and are being disposed of by a common order.

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.12042 of 2015 (3) dt.03-07-2015 2/3 Heard both sides.

The petitioners of these two cases are not named in the FIR which was registered under Sections 324,307,447 and 120B/34 of the IPC and Section 27 of the Arms Act on the basis of the statement of the victim mother. The petitioners apprehending their arrest in connection therewith have filed the present application.

It has been submitted that the specific allegation is attributed in the FIR to Arbind Rai who is said to have fired and caused injury to the victim. The petitioners are not named in the FIR. At the subsequent stage an apprehension has been raised that they must have hand in the commission of the offence. It is submitted on behalf of the petitioners that two accused persons who have been named in the FIR raising apprehension of having conspired in the commission of crime have since been released on bail vide order dated 5.4.2011 (Annexure-5). The petitioners were not even sent up for trial. The Court differing with the report has taken cognizance and hence the apprehension. Considering the aforesaid, I am persuaded to extend the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioners of both the matters. Let the petitioners of both the matters, named above, in the event of their arrest/surrender before the learned Court below

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.12042 of 2015 (3) dt.03-07-2015 3/3 within a period of four weeks from today, be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 10,000/- (Ten Thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned C.J.M./Judicial Magistrate 1st Class, Muzaffarpur in connection with Maniyari P.S. case no. 124 of 2010, subject to the condition as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Cr.P.C. with further following conditions:- (i) One of the bailors in each case shall be the own/close family member of the petitioners.
