2/30 .07.2014 Both the bail applications are heard together, as they

Appu, learned Additional PPs for the State.
This is a case under Sections 413/414/34 of the Indian
Penal Code. It is submitted that petitioners have no criminal
antecedent, thus, offence under Section 413 of the Indian Penal Code
is not made out. It is then submitted that offences under Sections

and petitioner namely Santosh Lohra is in custody from 01.05.2014,
whereas, petitioner namely Mahesh Yadav is in custody from

Learned Additional PPs after going through the case diary has fairly stated that petitioners have no criminal antecedent.
Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstance, I allow these applications and direct the court below to enlarge the petitioners, above named, on bail on their furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/-(Ten thousand) each with two sureties of like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Latehar in connection with Chandwa P.S.
