Mr.Binod Kumar ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE SUNIL KUMAR PANWAR ORAL ORDER 01-02-2023 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned APP for the State.

The petitioner has filed the instant application for grant of regular bail in a case registered for the offences punishable under Sections 379 of the Indian Penal Code. It is a case of theft of truck, bearing registration No. BR-01-GB-4915, of the informant.

It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that petitioner is innocent and he has falsely been implicated in this case. The petitioner is neither named in F.I.R nor he has been put on T.I.P. nor anything has been recovered from the conscious possession of the petitioner. A statement has been made in para 3 of the petition that petitioner has no criminal antecedent. Moreover, the petitioner is in judicial

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.48413 of 2022(3) dt.01-02-2023 2/2 custody since 11.06.2022.

Learned APP appearing on behalf of the State has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail of the petitioner and submitted that the petitioner has confessed his guilt and at the instance of the petitioner, the alleged stolen truck has been recovered. This fact is also corroborated by seizure list, mentioned in paragraph No. 43 of the Case-Diary. Considering the fact that stolen truck was recovered on the identification of the petitioner, this court is not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail and, as such, his prayer for bail stands rejected.

The learned Trial Court is directed to expedite the trial and conclude the same as early as possible. (Sunil Kumar Panwar, J) nirajkrs/- U T
