30-08-2022
At the outset, learned counsel for the petitioner
submits that there is typographical error in paragraph no.1
as well as in the prayer portion of the bail petition where the
date of the FIR has been wrongly mentioned as 20.07.2019
whereas it should be 27.09.2019.
As prayed, learned counsel is permitted to rectify
the same in course of the day.
Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and
learned APP for the State.
Let the defect (s), as pointed out by the office,
be removed within a period of four weeks from the date of
resumption of physical filing and physical removal of
defect.
In the present case, the petitioner seeks bail in

connection with Simri P.S. Case No. 282 of 2019 (Sessions
Trial No. 179 of 2021) registered for the alleged offences
under Sections 307, 379, 385, 387 and 506 of the Indian
Penal Code and Section 27of the Arms Act.
As per prosecution case, the petitioner threatened
the informant to withdraw the case of theft instituted against
him and opened fire but the shot did not hit anyone and the
petitioner took out Rs. 20,000/- from the pocket of one
Dhanu Sahni and fled away from the spot leaving behind
the motorcycle.
The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that
the petitioner has been falsely implicated in this case. It is
apparent from the FIR that the person, from whom the
money was snatched, did not lodge the FIR. No cartridge or
pellet was recovered from the place of occurrence and so
the story of opening fire is falsified. No one received any
injury. There is old enmity between the petitioner's side and
informant's side and a number of cases have been instituted
between them. The petitioner is in custody since 25.05.2021
and charge-sheet has been submitted in this case.
Learned APP opposes the prayer for bail

submitting that the there is allegation against the petitioner
that he opened fire and snatched money from the friend of
the informant.
Having regard to the submissions made
hereinabove and considering the fact that no one got hurt
and there is lack of material against the petitioner as it
appears from the FIR and further considering the
submission of charge-sheet along with his period of
custody, the petitioner above named is directed to be
released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 20,000/-
(twenty thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each
to the satisfaction of learned Additional District Judge-Ixth,
Buxar, in connection with Sessions Trial No. 179 of 2021
arising out of Simri P.S. Case No. 282 of 2019, subject to
the conditions mentioned in Section 437(3) of the Code of
Criminal Procedure and also the following conditions :
(i) The bail bond of the petitioner will be
accepted only after framing of charge, if not
already framed.
(ii) One of the bailors will be the deponent,
who has sworn the affidavit.
