Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.47520 of 2016 (2) dt.16-12-2016 3/3 inclined to grant privilege of pre-arrest bail to him and accordingly, his such prayer stands rejected in connection with Kotwali P.S. Case No. 94 of 2015 pending in the court of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Munger.
However, in case and if so advised the petitioner surrenders and seeks regular bail then his prayer for regular bail shall be considered preferably on the same day on its own merits without being prejudiced by the order of this Court. (Jitendra Mohan Sharma, J) ajaypd./- U T
