Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.49217 of 2015 (2) dt.09-11-2015 2/2 of the confessional statement the prosecution suspects the hand of the petitioner. Petitioner has no criminal antecedent. Learned AAP opposed the prayer and submitted that other accused persons of this case have surrendered and prayed for bail and some of them have been released on regular bail. Considering the seriousness of the allegations and the fact that the matter is under investigation, I am not persuaded to extend the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Prayer is refused.
Petitioner may surrender and seek regular bail. In case the same is preferred the Court below shall consider the same on its own merit uninfluenced by the present order. (Kishore Kumar Mandal, J) Shyam/- U T
