The State Of Bihar ... ... Opposite Party ====================================================== Appearance :

For the Petitioner/s :

Mr.Manoj Kumar Pandey For the Opposite Party/s :

Mr.Matloob Rab ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE VINOD KUMAR SINHA ORAL ORDER 07-03-2019 Petitioner seeks bail in anticipation of his arrest in connection with Warshaliganj P.S. Case No. 252 of 2018, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 302/34 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 27 of the Arms Act. Allegation as per FIR is of causing death of the brother-in-law of the informant and 12 persons were named in the FIR and petitioner is not named and later on his name transpired in the confessional statement of one Guddu Kumar and it further appears that petitioner is accused in six other cases.

Submission of learned counsel for the petitioner is that except confessional statement there is nothing against him. Heard learned APP, who has opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner on the ground that petitioner

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.79289 of 2018(3) dt.07-03-2019 2/2 has criminal antecedents.

Having heard both sides and in the facts and circumstances, I am not inclined to grant privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner, rather he should surrender and make prayer for regular bail, which shall be considered on the basis of materials available on record, without being prejudiced by this order.

With the above observation, this application is dismissed.
