The hutment situated besides the road does not belongs to the petitioner. There is no compliance of section 100 of the Cr.P.C. Petitioner has no criminal antecedent, as also mentioned in para3 of the bail application. Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances, since recovery has been made from the hutment of petitioner, I am not inclined to enlarge him on bail. The prayer for grant of anticipatory bail on his behalf is rejected.

This application is accordingly dismissed.
