Allegation against the accused persons, including the appellant is of lifting daughter of the informant in a vehicle and on alarm they have left her after some time and victim has supported the allegation in her statement recorded under Section 164 Cr.P.C.

Submission of learned counsel for the appellant is that there is general and omnibus allegation and nothing specific has been attributed against the appellant and there is six days delay in recording statement of victim.

Patna High Court CR. APP (SJ) No.3984 of 2018 dt.22-01-2019 2/2 Heard learned Special P.P. and learned counsel for the informant, who has opposed the pre-arrest bail of the appellant stating that the girl has supported the prosecution case in her statement under Section 164 Cr.P.C. Having heard both sides and in the facts and circumstances, I am not inclined to grant privilege of anticipatory bail to the appellant, rather appellant to surrender and pray for regular bail, which shall be considered on its own merit, without being prejudiced by this order. With the aforesaid observation, this appeal is dismissed. (Vinod Kumar Sinha, J) spal/- AFR/NAFR CAV DATE Uploading Date Transmission Date
