Ms. Anita Kumari Singh ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE MOHIT KUMAR SHAH ORAL ORDER 06-11-2020 The present petition has been taken up for consideration through the mode of Video Conferencing in view of the prevailing situation on account of COVID-19 Pandemic. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and Ms. Anita Kumari Singh, the learned A.P.P. for the State. This is an application for grant of anticipatory bail in connection with Baruraj PS case no. 17 of 2020 registered for the offences punishable under Sections 353 and other allied sections of Indian Penal Code.

The allegation is regarding the accused persons including the petitioner herein having surrounded the police jeep in which one accused person with naxal background namely Sri Wasim Akram was sitting, after the police had nabbed him and then the said accused persons including the petitioner herein had

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.27051 of 2020(2) dt.06-11-2020 2/2 enabled the said Wasim Akram to flee away from the spot. The learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the petitioner is innocent and has been falsely implicated in the present case. It is further submitted that a general and omnibus allegation has been levelled against the petitioner herein and the petitioner is having no complicity in the matter.

I have heard the learned counsel for the parties and considered the materials on record, from which it is apparent that the petitioner is a habitual offender, inasmuch as he is an accused in four other cases and prima facie, a case is definitely made out as against the petitioner herein, from a bare perusal of the FIR in question, hence I do not find it appropriate to atleast grant the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner herein. Accordingly, the present petition stands dismissed. (Mohit Kumar Shah, J) rinkee/- U T
