Damru Mahto vs The State Of Jharkhand on 9 May, 2014
6 On the other hand, learned counsel for the
respondents has opposed the prayer and submitted that on the date on
which the petitioner appeared before the learned CJM, the case was
registered under sections 337/338/325 of the Indian Penal Code; since the
offences alleged were bailable, the court had no option, but to grant bail.
But on the very same day ( 19.7.2007) itself, the informant succumbed to
his injuries and very promptly, on the next day, the investigating officer
filed petition for cancellation of bail and a separate petition to add section
302 of the Indian Penal Code. The CJM has rightly directed the petitioner
to file show cause and after granting hearing to the parties, bail granted
3
to the petitioner was cancelled due to change in the circumstances. There
is no illegality in the impugned orders and the judgments referred to above
by the learned counsel for the petitioner are not relevant to the facts and
circumstances appearing in the case at hand; rather, the facts of the
present case are fully covered by the judgment rendered in the case of
Hamida Vs. Rashid (2008 (1) SCC 474) (Supra ).
