JUSTICE MOHIT KUMAR SHAH ORAL ORDER 05-01-2018 Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned APP for the State.

This is an application for grant of anticipatory bail in connection with Complaint Case No. 257 of 2017 registered for the offence punishable under Sections 420, 467, 468, 323 and

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.62693 of 2017 (2) dt.05-01-2018 2/3 504/34 of the Indian Penal Code.

The allegation is regarding some of the accused persons conspiring together and selling of the land of the complainant to the other co-accused persons.

The learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the allegation levelled in the present case constitutes a dispute of a civil nature and the proper remedy for the complainant is to approach the competent court of civil jurisdiction. It is further submitted that the petitioners have a clean antecedent. The learned counsel for the informant has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail and submits that none of the petitioners are having a clean antecedent.

Considering the facts and circumstances of the case more particularly the fact that the allegation levelled in the present case constitute, at best, a civil dispute, I direct for enlarging the petitioners above named on anticipatory bail after verification of their antecedent and in case it is found that any of the petitioners is having criminal antecedent, such petitioners would not be granted the privilege of anticipatory bail.

Accordingly, I direct for enlarging the petitioners above named in the event of their arrest or surrender before the court below within a period of six weeks from the date of

Patna High Court Cr.Misc.
