JUSTICE CHAKRADHARI SHARAN SINGH ORAL ORDER 20-05-2016 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State. This application, for grant of anticipatory bail, arises out of Dinara Police Station Case No. 348 of 2015, disclosing offence under Section 392 of the Indian Penal Code.

It has been stated in paragraph 3 of the application that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent. The petitioner and the informant are co-villagers.

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.20395 of 2016 (2) dt.20-05-2016 2/2 villagers, known to the informant, would commit such crime and allow himself to be identified by the informant. He has submitted that it appears that the petitioner has been implicated on the basis of some suspicion.

Considering the aforesaid fact and in the facts and circumstances of the case, this application is allowed. Let the petitioner, Pramod Singh, in the event of his arrest or surrender before the Court below within six weeks, be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Sub Divisional Judicial Magistrate, Bikramganj, Rohtas, in connection with Dinara Police Station Case No. 348 of 2015, subject to the condition laid down under Section 438 (2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
