2. 19.1.2011. Heard Mr.Prabhat Ranjan, learned counsel for the

petitioner and Mr.Binod Shankar Modi, learned Additional Public

Prosecutor for the State.

Two petitioners, who are in custody in connection

with S.Tr. No.21 of 2000 arising out of Janta Bazar P.S. Case

No.0065 of 1998 for the offences under sections 307 and other allied

sections of the Indian Penal Code, have prayed for grant of bail.

It is a case of misuse of privilege of bail. The

petitioner was granted bail on 5.7.2004 and, thereafter, charges were

also framed. However, subsequently, since both petitioners failed to

appear, there bail bonds were cancelled and even they were declared

absconder.

Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that in

this case father of petitioner no.1, who was accused in the case, was

actually doing Pairvi and since after the death of his father, late

Baban Prasad, they failed the track of the case and, as such, their

bail bonds were cancelled. Immediately after noticing the fact both

the petitioners voluntarily surrendered on 23.7.2010 and since then

they are in custody.

Let the petitioners, above named, be released on bail

on furnishing bail bond of Rs.10,000/- each with two sureties of the
2

like amount each to the satisfaction of XIth Additional Sessions

Judge, Saran (Chapra) in connection with Janta Bazar P.S. Case

No.0065 of 1998 (S.Tr. No.21 of 2000) on a condition that one of

the bailors should be a close relative of both the petitioners. .
