As per the prosecution case, this petitioner along with other accused persons connive with each other and forged documents and on the basis of forged documents, Durgesh Sharma and others obtained bail order. Name of the petitioner surfaced during course of investigation in the statement of coaccused Durgesh Sharma. It is submitted that petitioner is not named in the FIR and only on the confessional statement of the co-accused, he has been made accused in this case. There is no document to show

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.10054 of 2020(5) dt.20-03-2023 2/2 that this petitioner had played any role in obtaining the alleged fake bail order of co accused persons. Petitioner was never the advocate of the co-accused neither Parvikar nor in relation with the co-accused Durgesh Sharma. He is a practicing lawyer for more than 25 years.

However counsel for the state vehemently opposes the bail application and submits that this petitioner along with other accused persons, manipulated the FIR and by manipulation, the FIR got accused persons released on bail. Petitioner has got three criminal cases.

Considering the same prayer for bail of the petitioner is refused with direction to the petitioner to surrender and seek regular bail, which would be disposed of on its own merit without being prejudiced by this order. (Prabhat Kumar Singh, J) asmit/- U T
