For the Petitioner/s :

Mr.Sanjeev Kumar Shrivastava For the Opposite Party/s :

Mr.Anil Kumar ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE NAWNEET KUMAR PANDEY ORAL ORDER 18-05-2023 Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and learned APP for the State.

This is an application for regular bail on behalf of the petitioners for the offences alleged under Sections 419, 420, 467, 468, 471, 472, 379 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code registered in connection with Bettiah Mufassil P.S.Case No. 1013 of 2022.

As per allegation, the police got a secret information that some miscreants had taken the premises on rent from one Bachchan Sah and they were engaged in cyber crime. The police party raided the place of occurrence. Two persons were attempting to flee away from the room where raid was conducted and they were apprehended. They disclosed their names as Vijay Kumar Ram @ Pappu (petitioner no.1) and Hakim Alam (petitioner no.2). From the pocket of petitioner no.

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.13351 of 2023(2) dt.18-05-2023 2/2 1, 15 ATM cards and three mobile sets and from possession of petitioner no.2, 12 ATM cards kept in his purse were recovered. On intensive interrogation, these petitioners apprised the police personnel that they had taken the premises on rent and they were engaged in cyber crime involving cheating to innocent villagers at the pretext of providing them Aadhar Cards and ATM Cards etc.

The learned counsel for the petitioners has submitted that they have falsely been implicated in this case. The premises wherefrom those articles were recovered were not in possession of the petitioners.

The FIR shows that a number of incriminating articles have been recovered from the pocket and purse of the petitioners. They are also accused in other cases of similar nature.

In my view, it is not a fit case to grant the privilege of bail to the petitioners. It is accordingly rejected. (Nawneet Kumar Pandey, J) HR/- U T
