Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.52681 of 2025(2) dt.11-08-2025 2/2 Registration No. BR-01-ET6820 is a stolen motorcycle for which Bidupur P.S. Case No. 119/2024 is already registered .

4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is innocent and has been falsely implicated in the present case merely on suspicion. He further submits that the petitioner is in custody since 07.05.2025 and charge-sheet has already been filed. Since investigation has been completed, therefore, no purpose would be served in keeping the petitioner in custody.

6. Considering the fact that the petitioner was caught red-handed stealing the motorcycle, the Court is not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner.

7. Accordingly, the bail application stands rejected. (Alok Kumar Sinha, J) Gaurav Sinha/- U T
