Mr.Rakesh Kumar No.1 For the Opposite Party/s :

Mr.Syed Ehteshamuddin ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE RAJENDRA KUMAR MISHRA ORAL ORDER 21-06-2019 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned A.P.P. for the State.

The petitioner apprehends his arrest in connection with Patahi P.S. Case No.200 of 2017 registered under Sections 341, 342, 323, 324, 307, 379, 504, 506/34 and 120(B) of the Indian Penal Code, pending in the court of the Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate-VIII, Motihari.

The accusation is that while the informant was in the way, this petitioner stopped the informant. Thereafter, on the order of this petitioner, 3-4 unknown persons caught hold of the informant and this petitioner caused injury to the informant indiscriminately through knife and took gold chain worth Rs.30,000/- and cash Rs.15,200/- of the informant.

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.16304 of 2019(3) dt.21-06-2019 2/2 Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has falsely been implicated in this case by the informant, who is commandant of M.C.C. and the main accused in the murder case.

On the other hand, learned A.P.P. for the State opposed the prayer of the petitioner for grant of privilege bail of the petitioner submitting that out of the eight injuries, as found on the person of the informant, three injuries are grievous in nature.

Having considered the facts and the circumstances of the case and the nature of allegation against the petitioner, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the prayer of the petitioner for grant of anticipatory bail stands rejected. However, the petitioner is directed to surrender before the trial court within eight weeks from today and pray for regular bail, which shall be considered by the trial court in accordance with law without being prejudiced by the order of this Court.
