For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Prabhat Ranjan Singh For the Opposite Party/s : Mr. Dasrath Mehta (App) ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE SAMARENDRA PRATAP SINGH ORAL ORDER 16-03-2016 Heard counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the informant.

Petitioner apprehends his arrest in a case instituted under Sections 467/468/471/420/120(B) of Indian Penal Code. The petitioner alleged to have transferred the land in the year 2014 which his grand mother had already transferred in the year 1990. It is further alleged that the land was in the name of his grand mother.

The petitioner submits that he was unaware that the land was transferred by his grand mother.

It goes without saying that any transfer without authority of law would be void and no title would accrue on that basis. Having regard to the facts and circumstance of the case,

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.11341 of 2016 (2) dt.16-03-2016 2/2 in case of arrest/surrender, let the petitioner named above, be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.5,000/- with two sureties of the like amount each, to the satisfaction of learned A.C.J.M., Jamui, in connection with Jamui P.S.
