Order No.09 Dated- 25.10.2024
Heard the parties.
This criminal miscellaneous petition has been filed under section 439 (2) Cr.P.C by the petitioner with a prayer to cancel the bail granted to the opposite party nos.2 and 3 vide order dated 21.10.2019 passed by this Court in A.B.A. No. 7330 of 2019 in connection with Saraiyahat P.S. Case No. 72 of 2019 pending in the court of Judicial Magistrate 1st Class, Dumka.
It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the opposite party nos.2 and 3 were granted bail with the condition that they will not go over the land of Gantzer's Settlement Khata No. 55, Mauja- Kaknia in the District of Dumka. It is next submitted that the opposite party nos.2 and 3 started constructing boundary wall over the disputed land for which the petitioner has informed to the Superintendent of Police, Dumka. Since the opposite party nos.2 and 3 have violated the terms and condition of the bail hence, the bail granted to them be cancelled.
Learned counsel for the opposite party nos.2 and 3 drawing attention of this Court to the counter affidavit filed in this case submits that the opposite party nos.2 and 3 have not violated the terms and condition of the bail as is evident from the judgment of Commissioner dated 08.06.2022 that as per the report of the Circle Officer, Saraiyahat, the opposite party no.2 got 'Indira Awas' pucca well and surrounded the land by brick wall and planted many trees. So the question of constructing wall after the opposite party nos.2 and 3 being released on bail does not arise. Hence, it submitted that this criminal miscellaneous petition being without any merit be dismissed.
Having heard the submissions made at the Bar and after going through the materials in the record, this Court finds that allegation of violation of bail is vague. No time and date of the opposite party nos.2 and 3 entering upon the said land bearing Gantzer's settlement Khata No. 55, Mauja-Kaknia in the District of Dumka has been mentioned anywhere in this criminal miscellaneous petition nor it has been mentioned as to whether the opposite party nos.2 and 3 themselves constructed the wall or someone else on their behalf have constructed the wall and if anybody else have done the same, the name of the persons have also not been mentioned.
Under such circumstances, this Court is of the considered view that the claim of the petitioner that the opposite party nos.2 and 3 have violated the terms and condition of the bail granted to them vide order dated 21.10.2019 passed by this Court in A.B.A. No. 7330 of 2019 in connection with Saraiyahat P.S. Case No. 72 of 2019 does not inspire confidence.
Hence, this Court is of the considered view that there is no justifiable reason to cancel the bail granted to the opposite party nos.2 and
3. Accordingly, this criminal miscellaneous petition being without any merit is dismissed.
