JUSTICE HEMANT KUMAR SRIVASTAVA ORAL ORDER 25-02-2020 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State. Petitioner apprehends his arrest in connection with Kudhani P.S. Case No. 384/2018 registered for the offence punishable under Section 395 of the Indian Penal Code. Petitioner is not named in the first information report and the impugned order goes to show that the name of petitioner has come in confessional statement of co-accused. The petitioner does have criminal antecedents and, therefore, taking note of the aforesaid facts and circumstance, I am not inclined to extend the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner and, accordingly, his prayer for anticipatory bail stands rejected. However, petitioner is directed to surrender before the

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.1336 of 2020(2) dt.25-02-2020 2/2 court below within six weeks from today and if he does so and seeks regular bail, the concerned court shall consider the regular bail petition of the petitioner on its own merit without being prejudiced by this order.
