11/ 13.6.2011

Instant interlocutory application has been filed on behalf of the sole
appellant Lalit Singh with a prayer for grant of bail during pendency of this
appeal on the ground of death of his mother, who died on 5.6.2011, in
support whereof xerox copies of the death certificate issued by the competent
authority dated 7.6.2011 and the communication of death have been annexed
(Annexure-1 and Annexure-1/1) to the interlocutory application.

Prayer for bail of the appellant was earlier rejected on merit on several
occasions.

Learned senior counsel Mr. Mazumdar submits that at least his
provisional bail may be considered on the death of his mother because he has
to perform the rituals on the eve of the death as the appellant is the only son
of the deceased.

Taking the considered view, the appellant Lalit Singh is directed to be
released on provisional bail only for two weeks, on executing bail bond of
Rs.15,000/-( Fifteen Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to
the satisfaction of 1st Additional Sessions Judge, Garhwa in Sessions Trial
No.214 of 2007 with the conditions that one of the bailers of the appellant
would be the permanent employee of Government or Semi-Government
Undertakings and another would be his near relative with the direction to
surrender in the trial court-below on 29 th of June, 2011 and to file a certified
copy of the order by which he was admitted to surrender in the trial court-
below soon thereafter.

I.A. (Cr.) No.1050 of 2011 stands disposed of.
(Cr. Appeal (D.B.) No.246 of 2010)
Put up this appeal according to its age under the heading “For Hearing”.
