The petitioner apprehends his arrest in Saurbazar P.S. Case No. 47/2014, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 302, 34, 120B of the Indian Penal Code and 27 of the Arms Act.

The petitioner is named in the FIR, but the informant Arun Yadav made allegation against the brother of the petitioner and others. The informant alleged that the petitioner many days before the occurrence had come to his house. The informant further alleged that on 18.01.2014 while he was going to attend the call of nature, the petitioner Shambhu Yadav was instructing his brother Arvind Yadav @ Baua Yadav to kill Arun Yadav and his family members.

It is submitted that the present occurrence took place on 25.01.2014. The petitioner was not present on the place of occurrence. The petitioner is a C.R.P.F. constable, he was posted in Jamui. It is further submitted that the petitioner is also made accused in Saharsa Sadar P.S. Case No. 689/2014 registered under Section 302 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code and 27 of the Arms Act. No specific allegation was made in that case against the petitioner and he had been granted anticipatory bail by a Bench of this court vide order dated 01.12.2015 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 45326/2015.

Learned Additional P.P., however, opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail, but submitted that on perusal of the case-diary it appears that there is no material to prove that even the petitioner was present on the place of occurrence. In para 44 of the case-diary, eye-witnesses disclosed the name of Amit Yadav and Baua Yadav who made firing on the deceased. The petitioner was not even present at the place of occurrence. Considering the facts aforesaid and the fact that there is enmity between the two families and the petitioner is said to have directed his brother only before the occurrence, but the petitioner was not present at the place of occurrence on the date of occurrence, the petitioner above named in the event of his arrest or

surrender before the court below within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order, is directed to be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Saharsa in connection with Saurbazar P.S.
