Learned counsel for the petitioner undertakes to remove the defects within four weeks of resumption of normal court proceedings. In the eventuality of non-removal of defects within stipulated period, office will place the matter before the Bench. The petitioners apprehend their arrest in connection with Siwaipatti P.S. Case No.90/2021, registered for the offence punishable under Sections 467, 471, 420, 414 of the IPC. Allegation against the petitioner is that he is the member of a syndicate, who are involved in theft and sell of stolen motorcycles.

It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that petitioner is quite innocent and has committed no offence. He

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.15992 of 2022(2) dt.10-08-2022 2/2 has been falsely implicated in this case due to village politics. Petitioner has not been apprehended on the spot nor any incriminating article has been recovered from his conscious physical possession. He has no concern with the stolen motorcycles. He has been made accused in this case on the confessional statement of the co-accused. Petitioner has no criminal antecedent.

Learned APP for the State opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail and submits that the petitioner is the member of the syndicate who are involved in stealing vehicles. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. The prayer for grant of anticipatory bail on his behalf is hereby rejected. This application is accordingly dismissed.
