For the State : A.P.P.

6/ 17.11.2011
Both these bail applications arise out of the same case and as such,
they are taken up together and disposed of by this common order.
Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned A.P.P. for
the Prosecution.
The petitioners have been made accused for the offence under
Sections 341, 302, 307, 324, 34 of the Indian Penal Code, Section 27 of the
Arms Act and Section 17 of the C.L.A. Act, in connection with Ranka P.S. Case
No. 76 of 2007 corresponding to G.R. No. 693 of 2007.
According to F.I.R., about 50 persons belonging to the extremists
group fired indiscriminately on the buses and trucks, in which one bus driver
was injured and one truck driver was killed and other persons were injured.
Learned counsel for the petitioners has submitted that the
petitioners have not been named in the F.I.R., rather, the petitioners have been
made accused on the basis of confessional statement of co-accused as also on the
basis of statements of some witnesses, who have stated that culprits were taking
names of each other, in which, the names of these petitioners transpired. Learned
counsel has accordingly prayed for bail.
In the facts of this case, I am inclined to enlarge the petitioners,
Vikash Sao, Jokhan Singh and Ramjee Paswan, on bail. Accordingly, the
petitioners, named above, are directed to be released on bail, on furnishing bail
bonds of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) each, with two sureties of the like amount
each, to the satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Garhwa, in
connection with Ranka P.S. Case No. 76 of 2007 corresponding to G.R. No. 693
of 2007.
