====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE PURNENDU SINGH ORAL ORDER 16-12-2022 Heard learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner and learned A.P.P. for the State, through video conferencing.

The petitioner seeks regular bail in connection with Saraiya P.S. Case No. 536 of 2021, for the offence punishable under Section 392 of the Indian Penal Code.

The prosecution case, in brief, is that while the informant was going to his village boarding on motorcycle bearing registration No. BR06BU-9200, on the way, two miscreants overpowered him and snatched his motorcycle on the point of pistol.

Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that the petitioner is innocent and he has falsely been implicated in this case. He further submits that nothing has been recovered from the possession of the petitioner. The

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.55152 of 2022(2) dt.16-12-2022 2/3 Chargesheet has already been submitted. The petitioner is in custody since 21.12.2021, but till date he has not been put on T.I.P. He further submits that one criminal antecedent is against the petitioner and in this regard he has made specific statement in paragraph No.3 of the bail application.

Learned A.P.P. for the State has opposed the prayer for grant of bail to the petitioner.

Considering the aforementioned facts and circumstances of the case and the fact the petitioner is not named in the F.I.R. Chargesheet has already been submitted, the petitioner has not been put on T.I.P. There is no allegation of tampering the evidence or influencing the witness and the trial of the petitioner is not likely to be completed in near future. The petitioner, above named, is directed to be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 25000/- (Rs. Twenty Five Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned A.C.J.M-IV, Muzaffarpur(West) in connection with Saraiya P.S.

(3) If the petitioner tampers with the evidence or the witnesses of the case, in that case, prosecution will be at liberty to move for cancellation of bail of the petitioner.

(4) If the petitioner is found involved in similar nature of offence, after his release on bail, the trial Court shall take steps to cancel his bail bonds.
