3. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that bare perusal of the order dated 06.02.2019 indicates the date of birth of the petitioner to be 18.01.2004, which at the time of occurrence made him only 14 years 8 months and 9 days. It is further submitted that from the order dated 08.02.2019, it appears that the J.J. Board has considered the case of the petitioner and held him to be a juvenile, but yet he has not been released which is against the provisions of law as enumerated in Section 12 of the J.J. Board Act and the Rules and he may be released in favour of a fit person or his father. It is further submitted that the petitioner's name has surfaced only in the confessional statement made by one co-accused Satyendra Ram and he has been in custody since 04.12.2018. He thus submits that the petitioner being a juvenile may be extended the privilege of bail.
4. Having considered all facts and circumstances and also that the petitioner has been in custody for more than one year, let the above named petitioner, a juvenile, be released on bail on his furnishing bail bond of Rs.10,000/- (Ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned Principal Magistrate, J.J.
