The petitioner seeks bail in connection with Dhansoi P.S. Case No. 142 of 2014 registered for the offences punishable under sections 25(1-b)(a) and 26 of the Arms Act. According to the prosecution case, one country made pistol was recovered from the possession of the petitioner by the police on 1st December, 2014.

On the other hand, learned counsel for the State has opposed the prayer for bail. He has submitted that the petitioner is

Regard being had to the facts and circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner for the present. Accordingly, the prayer for bail is rejected. Since the petitioner is in custody, learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Buxar is directed to hold the trial of the petitioner on day to day basis and conclude the same as early as possible preferably within six months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of the order, failing which the petitioner would be at liberty to renew his prayer for bail.
