Petitioners seek regular bail in connection with Manjhi P.S. Case No.102 of 2017 registered for the alleged offences under Sections 25 (1-B) (a), 26 and 35 of the Arms Act. As per the prosecution case, two country made pistols and five live cartridges are said to have been recovered from the house of the petitioners and they were apprehended by the police. It has been submitted by learned counsel for the petitioners that the petitioners have been falsely implicated in this case by their Gotiyas who have land dispute with the petitioners.

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.34060 of 2017 (02) dt.20-07-2017 2/2 24.05.2017.

Considering the nature of allegation and the recovery of the arms and ammunitions from the house of the petitioners, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioners on bail. However, the petitioners may renew their prayer for bail after six months. Accordingly, this application is rejected.
