4 17-08-2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as

learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the state.

Petitioner is not named in the First Information

Report but in course of investigation, it came to light that two

looted mobiles were recovered from possession of the

petitioner and furthermore, on the basis of confessional

statement of the petitioner, the looted motorcycle was

recovered from a garage.

The contention of learned counsel for the petitioner

is that the petitioner is an employee of T. S. Roadways

Company and had the petitioner participated in the alleged

crime, he would have certainly been identified by the

informant. It is further contended by him that uptill now, the

petitioner has not been put on Test Identification Parade. On

the otherhand, learned counsel for the prosecution points out

that the petitioner carries criminal antecedent of two cases.

Even if the prosecution story assumed to be true,

then also, at best, section-412 of the Indian Penal Code is

applicable against the petitioner.

Accordingly, the petitioner namely, Manoj Kumar

Yadav is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bond
2

of Rs 10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like

amount each in connection with Kursela P.S. Case No. 94 of

2010 to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Katihar.
