The petitioner has been made accused for the offence under Sections 420, 467, 468, 471, 477-A, 120-B of the Indian Penal Code and Section 13(1)(d) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, in connection with Special Case No. 24 of 2012 corresponding to Vigilance Case No. 22 of 2012.

¶7

The case relates to interpolation in the revenue records relating to 2 acres 731 kari of land, situated in Ranchi town and in the revenue records, the original entries were removed by the ink remover and the interpolations were made. The petitioner at the relevant time was the custodian of the records and taking into consideration the fact that it was a big scam relating to the lands of Ranchi, earlier bail applications of this petitioner were rejected twice on merits.

¶8

Learned counsel for the petitioner has renewed the prayer for bail submitting that the petitioner is critically ill and has suffered from paralytic attack and he is admitted in RIMS, Ranchi. The certificate of the Medical Officer, Birsa Munda Central Jail, Hotwar, Ranchi, has been brought on record to show that the condition of this petitioner is critical. Other medical documents have also been brought on record. It is also submitted that the petitioner is in custody since 26.11.2013.

¶9

In the facts of this case and taking into consideration the medical condition of the petitioner, Rupna Oraon, I am inclined to enlarge him on bail. Accordingly, the petitioner, named above, is directed to be released on bail, on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand), with two sureties of the like amount each, to the satisfaction of learned Special Judge, Vigilance, Ranchi, in connection with Special Case No. 24 of 2012 corresponding to Vigilance Case No. 22 of 2012.
