.... .... Petitioner

Versus

The State of Bihar .... .... Opposite Party ====================================================== Appearance :

For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Sanjay Kumar Singh For the Opposite Party/s : Mr. Khurshid Anwar ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE VINOD KUMAR SINHA ORAL ORDER 11-05-2018 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner.

Petitioner apprehends his arrest in connection with Jehanabad P.S. Case No. 18 of 2003, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 406, 409 and 420 of the Indian Penal Code.

Allegation against the petitioner is of defalcation of Rs. 89,472/-.

Submission of learned counsel for the petitioner is that two cases have been lodged for the same offence and he has deposited the amount. Further submission is that he has no knowledge about the case as such he could not file application for grant of anticipatory bail earlier.

Heard learned APP also.

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.27577 of 2018 (3) dt.11-05-2018 2/2 Having heard both sides and from perusal of record it appears that the other case for the same offence relates to Ghoshi P.S. Case No. 65 of 2003 and after fifteen years petitioner has come for anticipatory bail, considering his conduct, I am not inclined to grant privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. However, if the petitioner surrenders and makes prayer for regular bail showing that he has deposited the amount, learned court below shall consider this aspect of the matter and passed appropriate order, if possible, on the same day. With the above observation, this application is disposed of.
