                                   -----------

2 14.01.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the

State.

Petitioner apprehends his arrest in a case

registered for offences punishable under Section 3 of the

R.P.U.P. Act.

It is alleged that huge amount of stolen property

belonging to the Railways have been recovered from the

petitioner.

It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that he

has been neither named in the First Information Report nor

anything has been recovered from his possession, however,

he has been implicated in this case simply on the ground

that one of the co-accused has allegedly stated before the

Police that they had gone to commit theft of Railways

property after they had talked to this petitioner. It is

submitted that it is a far-fetched allegation and obviously is
2

an afterthought. Learned counsel also submits that since

nothing has been recovered from the possession of the

petitioner, the ingredient of Section 3 of the Railways

R.P.,U.P. Act is not attracted. It is further submitted that all

the First Information Report named accused persons have

already been granted regular bail by different orders passed

in different cases.

Considering the facts and circumstances of the

case, in the event of arrest or surrender of the petitioner,

Pradeep Kumar, within a period of four weeks from today

in Garhara R.P.F Case No. 13/08 , he shall be released on

bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/-(rupees ten

thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the

satisfaction of the Railway Judicial Magistrate, Barauni,

Begusarai, subject to the conditions as laid down under

section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
