The petitioner seeks bail in connection with Bhagwanpur P.S. Case No. 59 of 2015 registered for the offence punishable under Section 304B/23 of the Indian Penal Code.

The learned A.P.P. fairly submits that other co-accused have been allowed bail.

In the facts and circumstances stated above, the petitioner, above named, is also directed to be released on bail on execution of bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the Learned A.D.J.
