Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned A.P.P. for the State.

The petitioner seeks regular bail in connection with Laxmipur P.S. Case No. 131 of 2021 dated 17.04.2021 lodged under Sections 395, 397, 412 of the I.P.C.

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.16605 of 2023(2) dt.10-05-2023 2/2 possession of the petitioner and he is in custody since 02.08.2022. Counsel for the petitioner also submits that there are three cases pending against him in which he is on bail. Learned counsel further submits that he is ready to fulfill all the conditions, whatsoever shall be imposed upon him. Learned counsel for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits that there are criminal antecedents of the petitioner, therefore, at the time of granting bail this aspect is necessary to be considered.

In this view of the matter, this Court is not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner and therefore, bail application of the petitioner is hereby rejected but liberty is hereby granted to the petitioner that he shall renew his prayer for bail after framing of charge in this case.
