Mr.Chandra Sen Prasad Singh ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE VINOD KUMAR SINHA ORAL ORDER 07-05-2019 Petitioners seek bail in anticipation of their arrest in connection with Katihar Sahayak P.S. Case No. 39 of 2019 registered for the offences punishable under Sections 120B, 420, 323, 324, 467 and 468/34 of the Indian Penal Code. Allegation against the petitioner is that they have taken Rs.13.4 lac for providing the informant the Gas Agency and it further appears that some of the transactions were made through RTGS.

Submission of learned counsel for the petitioners is that as a matter of fact the payment was made to the Gas Agency and not the petitioners, which will appear from Annexure-2 and petitioners have falsely been implicated in this

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.20356 of 2019(2) dt.07-05-2019 2/2 case.

Heard learned APP and learned counsel for the informant, who has opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners stating that on assurance of the petitioner that they will provide the informant the Gas Agency the informant has given the money to them in different transactions and of the transactions were made through RTGS to the account of the petitioners and thereafter they have provided a paper which was in the name of Nirmal Gas Agency, which was found to be forged.

In view of above facts and circumstances, I am not inclined to grant the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioners. They may surrender and pray for regular bail. With the above observation, this application is dismissed.
