Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.39371 of 2026(2) dt.24-06-2026 2/3 submitted that informant alleges that on 4-3-2026 at 9 PM, the petitioner, Vishal and Krishna along with three unknown accused came and started abusing and threatening, on objection petitioner and Vishal fired but the firing made by the petitioner caused injury to the informant on his arm. It is next submitted that petitioner along with Vishal and Krishna were arrested by the police and were produced before the learned Magistrate and the learned Magistrate finding the case to be suspicious released the petitioner and other two accused on PR bonds of Rs. 20,000/- with a direction that they should seek bail.
It is further submitted that from perusal of the order impugned, it would manifest that the same records that a surrender-cum-bail petition on behalf of the petitioner was filed on 9-3-2026. It is thus submitted that it appears that after the petitioner was released on PR bond, he filed surrender-cum-bail application on 9-3-2026. It is further submitted that despite such clear recording in the order impugned about filing of surrender-cum-bail petition by the petitioner on 9-3-2026, the petitioner in the instant anticipatory bail application has not even remotely whispered that whether petitioner had filed the aforesaid application or not.
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.39371 of 2026(2) dt.24-06-2026 3/3 bond and thereafter the petitioner filed surrender-cum-bail application, as such the anticipatory bail application was rightly held not maintainable by the learned district court. 4.
Learned appearing on behalf of the petitioner is not in a position to rebut the said submission of the learned counsel appearing on behalf of the informant that petitioner was released on PR bond and thereafter surrender-cum-bail application was filed before the learned District Court.
5.
After hearing the learned counsel for the parties, the Court is in agreement with the submission of the learned counsel for the informant, thus finds no merit in the instant anticipatory bail application as such the same is dismissed. (Satyavrat Verma, J) Sumit/- U T
