ANJANA MISHRA ORAL ORDER 01-07-2016 Heard Mr. Rajendra Narain, learned Senior Counsel appearing for the petitioner and the learned counsel for the informant as well as the learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State.

The petitioner is apprehending his arrest in connection with Motihari Muffasil P.S. Case No.55 of 2014, G.R. No.759/14 registered for the offence under Sections 341, 323, 307, 302 and 120B of the Indian Penal Code. Case diary in the present case was called for, which has since been received.

It appears that there is specific allegation against the present petitioner. The diary indicates that the petitioner had an

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.18101 of 2016 (3) dt.01-07-2016 2/2 active role to play in the occurrence, which led to the death of the boy Aniket Raj.

Learned counsel for the informant submits that Sujeet Kumar alias Tuddu, who has actively participated in the occurrence, has been refused the privilege of anticipatory bail by a Bench of this Court, vide order dated 29.7.2015 passed in Cr.Misc. No.47709 of 2014.

Considering the nature of allegations and that there being specific allegation against the present petitioner, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to him. It is, accordingly, rejected.

However, if the petitioner surrenders in the court below in connection with the present case within a period of six weeks from today and prays for regular bail, it shall be open to the court below to consider his case on its own merits without being prejudiced by the present order.
