Learned counsel for the petitioners undertakes to remove the defects within three weeks.
The petitioners are apprehending their arrest in a case registered for the offence punishable under Sections 148, 149, 323, 380, 452 and 498(A)34 of the Indian Penal Code pending in the learned court below.
Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners are innocent and have been falsely implicated in this case. He further submits that there is specific overt act against the petitioner no.1 Anil Kumar Pandey. He further submits that
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.44056 of 2022(4) dt.28-02-2023 2/3 there is no specific overt act against the petitioner no.2 and petitioner no.2 is a lady. He further submits that petitioners have got no criminal antecedent as stated in para-3 of the bail application.
Per contra, learned APP for the State vehemently opposing the bail application and submitted that the there is specific overt act against the petitioner no.2 Anil Kumar Pandey that after the death of the husband of the informant he tried to marry with the informant and pressurize her to transfer the flat (which was purchased by the husband of the informant) and also pressurized to deposit the money, deposited in the bank account of her late husband, in the account of the petitioners. Hence, they do not deserve anticipatory bail.
Considering the facts and circumstances of the case there is specific overt act against the petitioner no.2, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner no.2 on bail in connection with Chapra Town P.S. Case No. 05 of 2022. Accordingly, his prayer for anticipatory bail is hereby rejected.
Insofar as the petitioner no.1 is concerned, there is no specific overt act against the petitioner no.1 and petitioner no.1 is a lady, let the petitioner no.1, named above, in the event of her arrest/surrender before the learned court below within a period
