====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE PRABHAT KUMAR JHA ORAL ORDER 10-04-2017 Heard both sides.

The petitioner seeks bail in Chakai P.S. Case No. 74 of 2016, registered for the offences punishable under Section 307 and other Sections of the Indian Penal Code, under Sections 25(1-b)a, 26, 27 and 35 of the Arms Act and under Sections 16, 17, 18 and other Sections of the U.A.P. Act.

The SHO Chakai alleged that he got information that some naxalites were assembled on such information the informant and other police personnel went to the place for checking. While the petitioner was crossing on a motorcycle he was apprehended and other accused persons managed to flee away after throwing their arms and ammunitions. From the possession of the petitioner one pistol with a magazine and four live cartridges were recovered.

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.11911 of 2017 (3) dt.10-04-2017 2/2 Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that all the allegations are false and concocted. The petitioner was arrested on 12.07.2016 but he was remanded in this case on 14.07.2016. The petitioner is a labourer and he in jail since 14.07.2016. Considering the facts that one pistol with a magazine and four live cartridges were recovered from the possession of the petitioner and the petitioner has got criminal antecedent of similar nature, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner above named on bail at this stage. Accordingly, the same is rejected. The petitioner may renew his prayer for bail after remaining one year in custody.
