Mr. Rahul Ganguly.

...for the Petitioner.

Mr. Rudradipta Nandy, ld. A.P.P., Mrs. Sonali Das.

...for the State.

Petitioner has deposited the entire amount of public money allegedly misappropriated.

In view of the aforesaid fact and as investigation is complete, we are of the opinion further detention of the petitioner is not necessary and he may be enlarged on bail. Accordingly, the petitioner viz., Manmatha @ Manmatha Nath Mahata shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Jhargram subject to condition that he shall appear before the trial court on every date of hearing until further orders and shall not intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever.

In the event the petitioner fails to appear before the Trial Court without any justifiable cause, the trial Court shall be at liberty to cancel his bail in accordance with law without further reference to this Court.

The application for bail is, thus, disposed of. (Gaurang Kanth, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
