Mr.Asha Kumari ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE CHAKRADHARI SHARAN SINGH ORAL ORDER 05-06-2020 Heard learned counsel for the parties.

This application for grant of regular bail arises out of Kudhani P. S. Case No. 452 of 2019 registered for the offence punishable under Section 392 of the Indian Penal Code. According to the First Information Report, the miscreants looted a truck bearing registration No.UK-06CA7937, which was loaded with certain articles. The First Information Report was registered against unknown. During the investigation, the petitioner's name surfaced. Confessional statement of the petitioner was recorded by the police. On perusal of the case diary, I find that the petitioner gave vivid description of the manner in which the crime was committed. On the basis of said confessional statement of the petitioner, raids were conducted, leading to recovery of the looted truck in question.

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.1590 of 2020(4) dt.05-06-2020 2/2 Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that confessional statement of the petitioner is the only basis for his implication, which does not have any evidentiary value. Since it is evident from the case diary that recovery of the truck was made by the police on the basis of confessional statement of the petitioner, who has criminal antecedent, I am not inclined to grant the petitioner privilege of regular bail. This application is accordingly rejected.

Let steps be taken for expeditious conclusion of trial. (Chakradhari Sharan Singh, J) Pawan/- U T
