Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.24897 of 2024(2) dt.05-04-2024 2/3 petitioner is innocent and has committed no offence. He has falsely been implicated in this case due to dirty village politics. He is not named in the F.I.R. Nothing incriminating or theft article has been recovered from the conscious possession of the petitioner. A statement has been made in para 3 of the petition that petitioner has no criminal antecedent. He is languishing in judicial custody since 14.11.2023.

5. Learned APP for the State has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail.

6. From perusal of the F.I.R., seizure list and impugned order dated 02.02.2024, it appears that on the basis of written report of informant F.I.R. registered against unknown persons. On perusal of impugned order, it appears that during investigation, some stolen articles have been recovered from the shop of the petitioner but till date the I.O. has not put up the said stolen articles on T.I. Parade. Both the seizure list witnesses are police personnel which is complete violation of Section 100 of Cr.P.C., accordingly the prayer for bail of the petitioner is allowed. Let the petitioner above named be released on bail after framing of charge on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 10,000/- (Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned S.D.J.M., Khagaria in
