Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.39359 of 2026(2) dt.25-06-2026 2/3 petitioner is innocent and he has falsely been implicated in the present case.

The petitioner is in custody since 06.04.2026.
5. The learned Additional Public Prosecutor has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail of the petitioner and submits that the petitioner has participated in the present crime in question and apart from that he carries two criminal antecedents in which he is on bail in one case and one case is pending for consideration before competent Court of law.
6. Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances, let the petitioner, above named, 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 the learned SubDivisional Judicial Magistrate, Dehri, Rohtas in connection with Akodhigola P.S.
