Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.79827 of 2023(2) dt.15-12-2023 2/2 the petitioner is not named in the F.I.R., his name has been transpired in this case because he is the owner of the seized motorcycle. The petitioner has no criminal antecedent as mentioned in para-3 of this application.

5. Learned APP for the State vehemently opposing the bail petition submitted that the petitioner is also involved in the present case.

6. Considering the facts and circumstances of case and the fact that the petitioner is the owner of the seized motorcycle, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on anticipatory bail. The prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is hereby rejected.

7. However, if the petitioner surrenders before the learned Court below within six weeks from today and seek regular bail, the learned Court below would pass order on the same day in accordance with law without being prejudiced by this order, considering the fact that the petitioner has no criminal antecedent.
