The petitioner seeks regular bail in connection with Kotwali (Jogsar) P.S. Case No. 158 of 2018, registered for the offence punishable under Sections 379 of the Indian Penal Code.

The allegation is regarding the motorcycle of the informant having been stolen by miscreants.

The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in the present case on account of his involvement in one other case bearing Ishakchak P.S. Case No. 61 of 2018 in which he has been granted bail, as also in yet another case bearing Ishakchak P.S. Case No. 20 of 2018. It is alleged that in Ishakchak P.S.

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.18209 of 2019(2) dt.02-04-2019 2/2 Case No. 61 of 2018, a stolen motorcycle is said to have been recovered from near the house of Vijay Ram and Bablu Jha. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in the present case. It is submitted that no recovery of any motorcycle has been made from the possession of the petitioner, hence, the petitioner cannot be said to be having any complicity in the instant case. It is stated that though the petitioner is accused in two other cases, but he is on bail in the said two cases. The petitioner is stated to be languishing in custody since 6.11.2018.

Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, I deem it fit and proper to enlarge the petitioner on regular bail.

Accordingly, the above named petitioner is directed to be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 10,000/- (rupees ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned 7th A.C.J.M, Bhagalpur in connection with Kotwali (Jogsar) P.S.
