Thereafter, the informant went to the house of Chandan Yadav where he gave the identity care of Deen Bandhu Sharma (petitioner). After that, when on the instruction of Chandan Yadav, the informant proceeded for Basant Rai on the Scorpio vehicle, then Chandan Yadav, this petitioner and one person sat on the Scorpio vehicle and in course of talking on the Scorpio vehicle, they were taking the name of another person as Rahman.
In course of returning from Basant Rai, in the way, all the three persons asked him to stop the vehicle on the pretext to urinate and when the informant stopped the vehicle, all the three persons came near him and, thereafter, Chandan Yadav and Rahman pointed pistols on his temporal region and asked him to get down from the vehicle and to give the key of the vehicle. In that course, this petitioner started to cause assault to the informant through fists and slaps. On fear, he gave the key of the vehicle to them and started to flee away and aforesaid three persons moved from there boarding on the vehicle. Thereafter, the informant came on the road and went to Sanokhar police station and gave information to the Officer Incharge, who gave information regarding the same to the Officers Incharge of other police stations.
Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.24479 of 2017 (3) dt.21-07-2017 3/3 his vehicle has been seized under Ishipur Barahat Police Station. Thereafter, the Officer Incharge of Sanokhar Police alongwith other police officials proceeded for Ishipur Barahat Police Station and he also reached there then found that the police was interrogating with the petitioner.
Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that, in fact, the petitioner, who is the carpenter, was called by the co-accused Chandan Yadav for doing the furnishing work at Basant Rai, as such, the petitioner has no concern with the alleged offence but under misconception, he has been apprehended by the police. The petitioner is in custody since 15.11.2016. Having regard to the facts and the circumstances of the case and the nature of allegation, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the prayer of the petitioner for grant of bail stands rejected.
