The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that there was prior dispute between the parties and moreover, quarrel had taken place between the owner of the trekker and the bus driver, however, the petitioner has got nothing to do in the present case. It is submitted that the petitioner is having a clean antecedent and he is languishing in custody since 28.03.2018. Lastly, it is submitted that similarly situated co-accused person has already been granted bail by this Court by an order dated 05.07.2018 passed in Criminal Miscellaneous No. 33252 of 2018. Per contra, the learned counsel for the informant has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail.
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 1st Additional Sessions Judge Nalanda at Biharsharif in connection with Parwalpur P.S.
