The petitioner seeks bail in a case of misuse of privilege

of bail with respect to a criminal prosecution registered under section

3 (a) R.P. (U.P) Act 1966.

It is submitted that the criminal prosecution was registered

on 23.12.1987 and after remaining in Judicial custody for some time

he was granted bail by the court below itself. Thereafter petitioner was

making regular pairvi for about ten years but trial of the petitioner was

not taken up. The bail bond of the petitioner was subsequently

cancelled on 11.1.1996, as the petitioner had gone out of Bihar for

earning his livelihood after entrusting the pairvi of his case to his

Karpardaz, who neither made regular pairvi nor informed the

petitioner about cancellation of his bail bond.

It was further submitted that petitioner, after coming to

know about cancellation of his bail bond, has surrendered on 7.7.2010.

Further more, he is facing rigour of criminal trial for a quite long time

and, therefore, he has been sufficiently punished in the present case.

In the aforesaid facts and circumstances, the above named

petitioner is directed to be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail bond of

Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of like amount each to

the satisfaction of Railway Judicial Magistrate, Gaya in connection

with Dehri-on-sone R.P.F. P.S. Case no. 49/87, Tr. No. 08/08 subject

to the conditions:

(a) That one of the bailors must be Govt. servant or close

family member of the petitioner, who will file an affidavit in the court

below showing his/her relationship with the petitioner.

(b) If the petitioner is found involved in same and similar

nature of cases in future, then in that case the informant/prosecution

shall be at liberty to file a petition for cancellation of the bail of the

petitioner, and if such a petition is filed, the court below would be

obliged to dispose of the same in accordance with law after giving

opportunity of hearing to all concerned.

(c) The petitioner shall make regular pairvi in the court

below in the present case either by appearing himself in person or

through representation by his lawyer on each and every dates, and if

on two consecutive dates petitioner fails to make pairvi, then the court

below shall be at liberty to cancel the bail bond of the petitioner.
