For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Sheikh Arkan Ahmad For the Opposite Party/s : Mr. Smt. Anusuiya Jaiswal ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR ORAL ORDER 29-06-2018 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned A.P.P. for the State.

The petitioner seeks regular bail in connection with Rail Gaya P.S. Case No.12 of 2018 registered for the offences punishable under Sections 379/411of the Indian Penal Code. It is alleged that on 16.01.2018 the informant was travelling along with his wife from Jehanabad to Gaya by train and when he reached Gaya and was descending down at the platform, the petitioner snatched his bag containing medicines and cash of Rs.2500/- and ran away. On the alarm of informant the police party with the help of local passengers/public caught the petitioner along with his snatched bag.

It has been submitted that this petitioner has been

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.28811 of 2018 (3) dt.29-06-2018 falsely implicated in this case. The petitioner is a daily wage labourer and while he was going for his job, he was apprehended under suspicion and so he deserves bail.

The learned A.P.P. for the State opposed the submission.

From perusal of the F.I.R. and the case-diary, it appears that the petitioner was apprehended by local passengers on the spot and the bag, which was stolen from the informant, was recovered from possession of the petitioner. Besides that, the petitioner is involved in two more cases bearing Kotwali P.S. Case No.383 of 2013 for the offences under Sections 302 and 201 of I.P.C. and Kotwali P.S. Case No.470 of 2015 for the offences under Sections 379 and 411 of I.P.C.

Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. The prayer of bail is accordingly rejected.
