====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE RAJENDRA KUMAR MISHRA ORAL ORDER ------------- 25-06-2015 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned A.P.P. for the State.

The petitioner apprehends his arrest in connection with Ahiyapur P.S. Case No.226 of 2014 registered under Sections 354, 504 and 506/34 of the Indian Penal Code besides Section 8 of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act, 2012, pending in the court of the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Muzaffarpur. The allegation against the petitioner is of harassing sexually to Mintu Kumari, the daughter of the informant, Umesh Ram. It is also alleged that when the informant went to the house of the petitioner to make query regarding the said occurrence, he was abused and threatened to kill by the petitioner and his parents.

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.47552 of 2014 (3) dt.25-06-2015 2/2 Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that the informant is the co-villager of the petitioner and due to dirty village politics, the petitioner has falsely been implicated in this case.

Having considered the facts and the circumstances of the case and the nature of allegation against the petitioner, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the prayer of the petitioner for grant of anticipatory bail stands rejected. However, the petitioner is directed to surrender before the trial court within six weeks and prayer for regular bail, which shall be considered by the trial court on its own merit without being prejudiced by the order of this Court.
