Mr.Awadhesh Kumar Singh, APP ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE MOHIT KUMAR SHAH ORAL ORDER 16-12-2022 Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned APP for the State.

The petitioner seeks regular bail in connection with Sasaram Town PS case no. 496 of 2022 instituted for the offences punishable under Section 414 of Indian Penal Code. The allegation is regarding two persons including the petitioner herein having been apprehended while they were riding on a stolen motorcycle and upon being asked to produce the registration documents, they could not do so. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is innocent, he has been falsely implicated in the present case, is having a clean antecedent and is languishing in custody since 19.06.2022. The learned counsel for the petitioner has further submitted that the petitioner was a pillion rider of the motorcycle in question and the same was being driven by the

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.46392 of 2022(2) dt.16-12-2022 2/2 co-accused person namely Sardar Vikas Singh. It is further submitted that the petitioner is a poor person and has got nothing to do with the stolen motorcycle in question. Per contra, the learned APP for the State has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail.

Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for the parties and taking into account the materials available on record as also considering the period of incarceration of the petitioner, I deem it fit and appropriate to admit the petitioner to the privilege of bail.

Accordingly, the abovenamed petitioner is directed to be released on regular bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (Rs. Ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Rohtas at Sasaram in connection with Sasaram Town PS case no. 496 of 2022.
