====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ANJANI KUMAR SHARAN ORAL ORDER 18-05-2023 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned A.P.P. for the State.

The petitioner apprehends his arrest in a case registered for the offences punishable under Sections 379, 411 of the Indian Penal Code.

Allegedly, petitioner along with other accused persons, is said to have stolen generator, motor, 40 bags of cement including other articles worth Rs. 86,500/- mentioned in the FIR.

It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that petitioner is quite innocent and has committed no offence. No such occurrence as alleged ever took place. He has been falsely implicated in this case due to suspicion. The allegation levelled

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.16418 of 2023(2) dt.18-05-2023 2/2 against the petitioner is not specific rather general and omnibus in nature. Nothing has been recovered from his conscious possession of the petitioner. The name of the petitioner transpired in this case on the basis of confessional statement of one co-accused, namely, Pradyuman Kumar. Petitioner has one criminal antecedent as mentioned in para-3 of this application. Per contra, learned APP for the State vehemently opposing the bail petition submitted that the allegations levelled against the petitioner is serious in nature, hence he does not deserve anticipatory bail.

Considering the facts and circumstances of case as well as the nature of the offence, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. The prayer for bail of the petitioner is hereby rejected.
