CRIMINAL MISCELLANEOUS No.19227 of 2021 Arising Out of PS. Case No.-350 Year-2020 Thana- DANAPUR District- Patna ====================================================== 1.
Rishi Kashyap @ Fanti Son of Late Narendra Kashyap Resident of Mohalla - Dhobi Tola, P.S.- Danapur, District - Patna 2.
Saurabh Kumar @ Ranjan Son of Shiv Nath Prasad Resident of Mohalla - A.G. Colony, P.S.- Shastri Nagar, District - Patna ... ... Petitioner/s
Versus
The State of Bihar ... ... Opposite Party/s ====================================================== Appearance :
For the Petitioner/s :
Mr. Indeshwari Prasad Mandal, Adv.
For the Opposite Party/s :
Mr. APP ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ASHUTOSH KUMAR ORAL ORDER 10-05-2022 Heard Mr. Indeshwari Prasad Mandal, learned advocate for the petitioners and Mr. A.P.P. representing the State.
The petitioners seek bail in anticipation of their arrest in connection with Danapur P.S. Case No. 350 of 2020 dated 13.06.2020 instituted for the offences under Sections 420, 406, 467, 468, 469, 471 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code. The accusation against the petitioners is of facilitating the commission of cyber crime by depositing money of an unsuspecting investor in another account and thereafter taking out the aforesaid amount in cash.
Though there is no specific allegation against the
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.19227 of 2021(3) dt.10-05-2022 2/2 petitioners but from the narration of events and the materials collected during course of investigation, it appears that the petitioners have been the facilitators in the crime. Considering the gravity of the offence and its perilous nature and also taking into account that such instances are burgeoning, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.
Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners is rejected.
If the petitioners surrender before the court below and seek bail, their application shall be considered on its own merits without being prejudiced by the fact that the present petition on their behalf has not been entertained by this Court. (Ashutosh Kumar, J) rishi/- U T
