The petitioner is apprehending his arrest in connection with Hajipur Sardar P.S.Case No.126 of 2016, registered for offences punishable under Sections 307/34of the Indian Penal Code. Allegation against the petitioner is of making indiscriminate firing on the informant causing injury to him. Submission of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that though there is allegation of firing against the petitioner and six other accused persons but there is only one injury on the person of the informant and further it is submitted that earlier in the year, 2012, a case was filed by the petitioner against the informant also though the petitioner is accused in 12 other cases but he is on bail.
Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.38454 of 2017 (2) dt.21-08-2017 2/2 Heard learned A.P.P. also, who has opposed the prayer for bail on the fact that he is accused in 12 other cases and there is allegation of firing against him and other co-accused persons. Having heard both sides and in view of allegation as well as having criminal antecedent, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner, however, the petitioner is directed to surrender before the learned court below within a period of four weeks and make prayer for regular bail, which will be considered by the learned court below on its own merit.
With the aforesaid observation, this application is dismissed.
