A theft had taken place in the Collectorate building of Bhagalpur on 16.09.2017. The case regarding the same was lodged by the Night Guard.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that those articles are of common use and the petitioner cannot be said to be in constructive possession of the articles. Because of the petitioner having been made accused earlier in two other cases of similar nature in which he is on bail, the police has chosen to implicate him falsely in the present case also.
Be that as it may, the petitioner has remained in jail since 19.09.2017.
Considering the aforesaid facts, the petitioner, above named, is directed to be released on bail on his furnishing bail-bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Bhagalpur in connection with Kotwali (Adampur) P.S.
