====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE RUDRA PRAKASH MISHRA ORAL ORDER 25-02-2026 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned APP for the State.

2. The petitioner apprehends his arrest in connection with Basopatti P.S. Case No. 29 of 2025, instituted for the offences under Section 25(1-B) (a), 26 and 35 of the Arms Act.

3. Prosecution case, in short, is that one country made pistol along with one live cartridge has been recovered from the possession of co-accused Arbaj Ansari. It is alleged that petitioner managed to flee away from the place of occurrence.

4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner has falsely been implicated in the present case. The name of the petitioner transpired in this case on the basis of confessional statement of apprehended co-accused person Arbaj Ansari, which has no evidentiary value. Learned counsel for the

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.14221 of 2026(2) dt.25-02-2026 2/2 petitioner submitted that the petitioner was not arrested on the spot. There is no compliance of Section 103 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023. It has been submitted on behalf of the petitioner that the petitioner has two criminal antecedents.

5. Learned A.P.P. for the State has vehemently opposed the prayer for grant of bail to the petitioner. Petitioner is named in the F.I.R.

6. Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances of the case, nature and gravity of offence, in my view, this is not a fit case for anticipatory bail.

7. Accordingly, the prayer for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner is, hereby, rejected.

8. However, if the petitioner surrenders before the learned court below within a period of six weeks from today and prays for regular bail, the same shall be disposed of on its own merit without being prejudiced by this order. (Rudra Prakash Mishra, J) manish/- U T
