The petitioner, Lala Paswan, seeks regular bail in East Colony P.S. Case No.48 of 2014, registered under Sections 25(1-B)a, 26(i)(ii) and 35 of the Arms Act.

The police, on secret information, intercepted a car and searched the occupants of the car. From the possession of one Shailesh Kumar, one loaded country made pistol of 9 MM and from the possession of the petitioner, Lala Paswan, one magazine and mobile phone were recovered.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that no independent witness put their signature on the seizure list. It appears that one magazine was recovered from the possession of the petitioner. Petitioner has got criminal antecedent as he is also accused in Parasbigha P.S. Case No.06 of
