During course of appointment of Panchayat

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.6685 of 2017 (4) dt.08-03-2017 2/2 Teacher, list was prepared comprising 599 candidates. During the course of scrutiny, BETET certificate were found fake. It has been submitted on behalf of petitioners that they could not be able to have appointment letters in their favour and on account thereof, no wrongful loss has been sustained to the State Exchequer and in likewise manner, no wrongful gain found in favour of the petitioner. The aforesaid theme was taken into consideration while granting anticipatory bail to other co-accused (Annexure-4) and so, it is a fit case wherein petitioner should be allowed to enjoy the privilege of anticipatory bail. It be a good ground for getting regular bail by having the presence of petitioners before the learned lower court which the learned lower court will favourably consider in case made by the petitioners.

With the aforesaid observations, instant petition is disposed of.
