While the informant was regressing to his home on 17.08.2023, after selling the milk as he is a milk businessman, and reached at Semra Bridge near Hanuman Temple, three miscreants came on motorcycle, overtake the informant, dashed him and on the point of pistol looted his motorcycle.

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.66255 of 2024(2) dt.18-10-2024 2/3 the same was not returned to him. Hence, the instant F.I.R. was lodged.
4. It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that no such occurrence as alleged ever took place. He is quite innocent and has been falsely implicated in this case due to previous enmity. He was not apprehended on the spot. No incriminating article has been recovered from his conscious physical possession. The allegation levelled against the petitioner is not specific rather general and omnibus in nature. Co-accused, namely, Sunny Yadav and Vikash Kumar and Ranjit Kumar have been enlarged on bail by a co-ordinate bench of this court vide order dated 30.01.2024 and 25.06.2024 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 2348 of 2024 and Cr. Misc. No.37662 of 2024. The petitioner has four criminal antecedents and has been languishing in custody since 29.04.2024.
5. Learned APP for the State vehemently opposing the bail petition submitted that considering the nature of the offence and the criminal antecedents, the petitioner does not deserve for bail.
6. In the facts and circumstances of the case and the criminal antecedents of the petitioner, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. The prayer for bail is hereby
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.66255 of 2024(2) dt.18-10-2024 3/3 rejected. However, the petitioner would be at liberty to renew his prayer for bail after framing of charge.
