Mr. Rajeev Nayan, APP ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE S. KUMAR ORAL ORDER 28-11-2019 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State.

Petitioner, who is in custody, seeks bail in a case, registered for the offence punishable under Sections 393 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code.

Informant has alleged in his written complaint that on 25.08.2019 at about 10:00PM, while he was going to Bettiah, two miscreants on one motorcycle followed him and intercepted his motorcycle and one miscreant tried to snatch his mobile and bag and on alarm being raised, people assembled there and apprehended one of the two accused and another fled away leaving his mobile and the apprehended accused disclosed his name as Neeraj Kumar (petitioner) and the accused who fled away as Subhash Das.

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.77560 of 2019(2) dt.28-11-2019 2/2 Prior to institution of this case, subsequently he has been remanded in Bettiah Muffasil (Banuchhapar) P.S. Case No. 420 of 2019, registered under Section 380 of the IPC. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, nature of allegation and since there is direct allegation against the petitioner of snatching of mobile and bag and was caught red-handed at the place of occurrence, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. Hence, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected at this stage. However, after one year of custody the petitioner would be at liberty to renew his prayer for bail.
