For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Pathak Dhananjay Kumar For the Opposite Party/s : Mr. L.K.Sharma(App) ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE JUSTICE SMT. NILU AGRAWAL ORAL ORDER 23-09-2015 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned A.P.P. for the State.
The petitioner apprehends her arrest in Pahar pur P.S.Case No. 188/2013 registered for offences punishable under Sections 420, 409, 467, 468, 471 and 120 (B) of the Indian Penal Code.
The prosecution case as per the F.I.R. lodged by one Amar Mahto, Ex-Sarpanch, son of late Mahadeo Mahto on 07.08.2013 at 9.00 A. M. is that in the financial year of 2011-12 in his panchayat some middle men namely, Shiv Chandra Ram, Bachan Das, Mumtaj Miayan and Surendra Prasad with conspiracy have made forged certificates of handicapped person and on that quota, they
Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.38892 of 2015 (2) dt.23-09-2015 2/3 have taken first installment of money of Indira Awas in the name of such persons, who are not handicapped. The informant thereafter has furnished the name of beneficiaries of Indira Awas. The name of beneficiaries is Hari Das, Madhu Devi, Kalawati Devi, Bharat das, Parmanand Sah, the petitioner (Shail Devi), and Narad Mishra.
It has further been alleged that the above beneficiaries are not handicapped but with connivance of officials and middlemen, the government money is being misappropriated after preparing the forged certificates and getting Rs. 10,000/- and Rs. 15,000/-, resultantly the real handicapped persons were being deprived.
It has been submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that she is a bonafide beneficiary but she has been falsely implicated. As per claim of Indira Awas, she has not applied under the category of handicapped quota rather her application was under BPL category.
It has further been contended that similarly situated beneficiary, namely, Madhu Devi has also been granted privilege of anticipatory bail in Cr. Misc. No. 24840 of 2014. I do not propose to take a different view.
Under such circumstances, in case of arrest or
Patna High Court Cr.Misc.
