The petitioner seeks bail in connection with Madhubani Town P.S. Case No. 152 of 2022 registered for the offence under Sections 399 and 402 of the Indian Penal Code and Sections 25(1-b)a, 26 and 35 of the Arms Act. The accused/petitioner is named in the F.I.R. and is in

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.39937 of 2022(2) dt.04-11-2022 2/3 custody since 03.05.2022.

The allegation against the petitioner is to prepare for dacoity, along ith other co-accused persons and, while preparing so, found in possession of one country made pistol. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submitted that recovered motorcycle and mobile, as per seizure list, belongs to the petitioner and on the basis of this, it cannot be said that petitioner was involved in the preparation, which may result in dacoity. It is further submitted that alleged recovery of pistol is, admittedly, from a mango tree and not from the conscious physical possession of this petitioner. While concluding the argument, it is submitted that petitioner is a man of clean antecedent and, moreover, investigation in this case is complete for which chargesheet has been submitted, as such, there is no chance of tampering with the evidence. Learned APP opposes the prayer of bail.

In view of the facts and circumstances, as mentioned above, as no incriminating material was recovered, which may suggest allegation as raised against this petitioner coupled with the fact that chargesheet has already been submitted, let the petitioner, above named, is directed to be released on bail in connection with Madhubani Town P.S. Case No. 152 of 2022
