The State of Bihar .... .... Opposite Party ====================================================== Appearance :

For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Manoj Kumar, Advocate For the Opposite Party/s : Mr. Anuj Kumar Srivastava, APP ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ASHWANI KUMAR SINGH ORAL ORDER 06-04-2018 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State.

The petitioner seeks pre-arrest bail in connection with Jehanabad P. S. Case No. 861 of 2017 registered under Sections 379 and 511 of the Indian Penal Code.

Considering the statement of co-accused Akash Kumar, who was apprehended while trying to take away a motorcycle parked in the court campus by using master key said to have been given to him by the petitioner, who managed to escape by seeing the police party, I am not inclined to grant him pre-arrest bail. Accordingly, the application for grant of prearrest bail is rejected.

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.18465 of 2018 (2) dt.06-04-2018 2/2 However, in case the petitioner surrenders and seeks bail, the same shall be considered on its own merit without being prejudiced in any manner by this order.
