IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA

Criminal Miscellaneous No.14873 of 2016 Arising Out of PS.Case No. -168 Year- 2015 Thana -CIVIL LINE District- GAYA ====================================================== Prabha Devi @ Prabhawati Devi wife of Sonu Kumar .... .... Petitioner/s

Versus

The State of Bihar .... .... Opposite Party/s ====================================================== Appearance :

For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Sudhir Kumar Sinha For the Opposite Party/s : Mr. Sanjay Kumar Tiwary (App) ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE HEMANT KUMAR SRIVASTAVA ORAL ORDER 11-04-2016 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State. Petitioner happens to be wife of the informant and there appears to be only allegation against her that she solemnized her marriage with co-accused Sonu Kumar in the life time of informant. Moreover, co-accused Sonu Kumar has already been granted privilege of bail by a co-ordinate Bench of this Court vide order dated 04.01.2016 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 50361 of 2015 but, even then, the learned 6th Additional Sessions Judge, Gaya rejected the prayer for bail of the petitioner without applying his judicial mind which is, in my view, not proper judicious approach of the concerned court.

Accordingly, let the petitioner, above named, be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 10,000/- with two

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.14873 of 2016 (2) dt.11-04-2016 2/2 sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Gaya in connection with Civil Lines P.S.Case No. 168 of 2015.
