Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.49868 of 2015 (2) dt.09-11-2015 by the learned counsel for the State would be inclined to grant privilege of anticipatory bail by also keeping into account that the two petitioners also have now no criminal antecedent, inasmuch as petitioner no.1 claims to have never been made accused in any case and petitioner no.2 though made accused in one criminal case which being for offence under sections 323, 341 I.P.C. is said to have been compromised.

Thus, if the petitioners, Bhairav Sah and Suresh Sah, would surrender before the court below within a period of four weeks from today, they shall be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.10,000/- (ten thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Sitamarhi in Dumra P.S.Case No. 405/2014, subject to the following conditions:

(iv) That the petitioners will give an undertaking that they will receive the police papers on the given date and be present on the date fixed for charge and if they fail to do so on two given dates and delay the trial in any manner, their bail will be liable to be cancelled for reasons of misuse.
