For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Rakesh Kumar For the Opposite Party/s : Mr. Sri Madan Kumar ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE VINOD KUMAR SINHA ORAL ORDER 31-07-2018 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State.

This application, for grant of anticipatory bail, arises out of Daudpur Police Station Case No. 01 of 2018, disclosing offences under Section 364(A) of the Indian Penal Code. Allegation against the petitioner is of kidnapping the informant for demand of rangdari of Rs. Ten Lacs. Submission of learned counsel for the petitioner that out and out false and fabricated allegations have been leveled and informant himself is involved in cheating the petitioner and other persons by assuring to provide job in foreign countries and he has also taken certain money from the petitioner and sent him to Malaysia for work but when he went there he came to know

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.34500 of 2018 (3) dt.31-07-2018 2/2 that he has been given a tourist visa only for seven days and when the petitioner put pressure on the informant, he came out with this false case and no such occurrence has ever taken place. Learned counsel for the State opposed the prayer for bail and submitted that no such fact with regard to informant has come in the case diary rather it is a specific case of kidnapping of the informant by the petitioner and demand of ransom of Rs. Ten Lacs.

Having heard both sides, considering the facts and circumstances of the case and also the nature of allegation, I am not inclined to grant the petitioner, privilege of anticipatory bail. This application is, accordingly, dismissed.

The petitioner may surrender before the court below and pray for regular bail and if any such application is filed the court below shall decide the same on the merit of the case, without being prejudiced by the order of this Court. (Vinod Kumar Sinha, J) sunil/- U T
