For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Anil Chandra For the Opposite Party/s : Mr. Smt. Asha Kumari ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE RAKESH KUMAR ORAL ORDER 17-09-2016 Heard Sri Anil Chandra, learned counsel for the petitioner and Smt. Asha Kumari, learned Addl. Public Prosecutor. The sole petitioner, apprehending his arrest in Hilsa P.S. Case No.459/15 registered for the offence under Section 420, 120(B) of the Indian Penal Code, has prayed for grant of anticipatory bail.

By way of referring to F.I.R., it was submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that whatever allegation has been made that has been made against Prof. Arvind Kumar. He submits that the petitioner has only been referred in the F.I.R. to be associate of Prof. Arvind Kumar. He submits that save and except the aforesaid allegation, there is no other material to connect the petitioner.

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.38375 of 2016 (2) dt.17-09-2016 2/2 However, after going through the F.I.R. it is evident that in the name of providing employment, innocent persons were cheated by a gang being operated by Prof. Arvind Kumar. In the F.I.R. there is specific accusation against the petitioner that he had played active role. I do not find any ground to extend the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

The petition stands dismissed.
