====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ANJANI KUMAR SHARAN ORAL ORDER 19-12-2022 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned A.P.P. for the State.

The petitioner apprehend his arrest in a case registered for the offence punishable under sections 302, 120(B)/34 of the Indian Penal Code and 27 of Arms Act.

As per the F.I.R., petitioner and five others having weapons came at the house of the informant and started abusing. It is further alleged in the F.I.R. that when the informant protested, one of the accused Sonam Singh fired gun shot on the informant, but it could hit the informant's uncle due to which he died on his way to hospital.

It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that petitioner is quite innocent and has committed no offence. Petitioner has no criminal antecedent, which is also mentioned in para-3 of the bail application. He further submits that there is

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.55628 of 2022(2) dt.19-12-2022 2/2 specific allegation against Sonam Singh who fired upon the informant, but it could hit the informant's uncle. The allegation levelled against the petitioner is not specific rather general and omnibus in nature and nothing specific has been attributed against him.

Learned APP for the State vehemently opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail application and submits that petitioner is the member of mob and he is also involved in the present case. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case and considering the nature of allegation, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. The prayer for grant of anticipatory bail on his behalf is hereby rejected.

This application is accordingly, dismissed.
