Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.18696 of 2016 (3) dt.12-07-2016 2/2 thereof. It is alleged in the First Information Report that the petitioner played an active role in persuading the informant to pay certain amounts to other members of the gang for securing job in his favour.

Learned counsel, appearing on behalf of the petitioner, has referred to a complaint petition, filed by the petitioner, wherein, he has made counter allegation that because the petitioner, who was, in fact, duped by several other persons named in the complaint petition, he has been falsely implicated in the present case. However, considering the magnitude of the crime, I am not inclined to grant the petitioner the privilege of anticipatory bail.

This application is, accordingly, rejected.

The petitioner, above named, is directed to surrender before the court below within a period of four weeks from today and seek regular bail, if so advised. If he does so, his application for regular bail shall be considered by the learned court below on its own merit without being prejudiced by rejection of present application for grant anticipatory bail.
