Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.24339 of 2021(2) dt.23-09-2021 2/2 It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that petitioner is quite innocent and has not committed any offence as alleged in the FIR. He has been falsely implicated in this case due to dirty village party politics and he has nothing to do with the alleged occurrence. No specific allegation is made out against the petitioner, who is a pattidar. Husband of the deceased is already in jail custody. Similarly situated co-accused namely Nagendra Sahani has been granted bail vide Cr. Misc. No.786 of 2021 dated 08.03.2021. The petitioner has no criminal antecedent and has been languishing in custody since 14.10.2020.

Learned APP for the State opposed the prayer for bail. Considering the facts and circumstances of this case, since husband of the deceased is in custody, the above named petitioner is directed to be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned A.C.J.M. 6th, East Champaran, in connection with Mehasi P.S.
