For the Appellant/s : Mr. Vikram Deo Singh, Advocate Mr. Bijendra Kumar Singh, Advocate For the Respondent/s : Mr. Sadanand Paswan, SPP =========================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE BIRENDRA KUMAR ORAL JUDGMENT Date: 19-06-2018 Heard learned counsel for the parties.

This is an appeal under Section 14(A)(2) of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989 (hereinafter referred to as the "SC/ST Act") against the refusal of prayer for anticipatory bail by the learned 1st Additional Sessions Judge-cum-Special Judge (S.C./S.T.), Purnea in SC/ST Case No. 149 of 2016 registered under Sections 147, 148, 149, 294, 341, 323, 353, 337, 379, 307, 427, 504, 506 of the Indian Penal Code as

Patna High Court CR. APP (SJ) No.504 of 2017 dt.19-06-2018 2/2 well as Section 3(I)(x) of the SC/ST Act.

Considering the nature of allegation disclosed in the FIR, in my view, this is not a fit case for grant of anticipatory bail. Hence, this appeal against the refusal of the prayer for anticipatory to the appellants stands dismissed as devoid of any merit. Accordingly, it stands dismissed.

However, it is made clear that in the event of surrender of the appellants, prayer for regular bail shall be considered without being prejudiced by this order.
