Verification of bail orders at the cost of State.
C.L. No. 13/2005 Dated 1st April, 2005
I am directed to say that upon a careful consideration of matter pertaining to a
complaint that for getting the genuineness of bail orders seemingly passed by the
Hon'ble High Court a sum of Rs. 100/- is required to be deposited in the District
Judgeship of Azmagarh, the Hon'ble Court has been pleased to provide that the
genuineness of bail orders seemingly passed by the Hon'ble Court shall be verified at the
cost of the State.
I am, therefore, to request that the measure so provided, be brought to the notice
of every Judicial Officer under your administrative control, for compliance faithfully and
punctually.

C.L. No. 124/VIIb-47, dated 24th October, 1979
In order to rule out the possibility of a prisoner securing his release from jail on the
basis of a forged release order, the Court has issued following instruction, which should
be strictly and faithfully followed by the presiding officers and the officials concerned in
issuing and scrutinizing release orders.
(a)
The release orders must contain the full name of the Presiding officer of
the issuing court below his signature and bear the seal of the court
invariably in a distinct manner;
(b)
When an order for the release of a prisoner, who has already been
transferred to another jail outside the district, is received and returned by
the Superintendent of Jail to the issuing court, with a report indicating the
date of transfer and the name of the jail to which the prisoner was
transferred, the court shall then send the release order by post to the jail
concerned and at the same time follow the procedure laid down in para (c)
below;
(c)
When a release order is issued by post to a jail outside the district, the
Presiding Officer of the court shall immediately give an intimation about
its dispatch by radiogram to the Superintendent of that jail.
(d)
In addition to supplying a list containing the names and specimen
signatures of all Presiding Officers of courts to the Superintendent of local
district jail (and also to any other jail or similar institution that functions in
the district), changes in the post of Presiding Officer should also be
intimated from time to time as they occur.
C.L. No. 73/VIII-47 , dated 18th November, 1982
To avoid release of convicts on forged bail orders more than ordinary care should
henceforth be taken before convicts are released on the basis of orders which purport to
have been passed by the Supreme Court of India. The concerned authority should also
satisfy himself carefully whether the bail orders in fact have been passed by the Supreme
Court and the convicts should be released upon such satisfaction. Convicts ought not to
