Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.1496 of 2026(2) dt.21-01-2026 2/3 petitioners were not arrested from the spot, as such, nothing was recovered from their conscious possession and they have no concern with the gallons and even alleged recovery is from a place, which does not belong to the petitioners and is accessible to villagers at large and they came to be implicated at the instance of local person, but the name of the person, who disclosed the name of the petitioners is not disclosed in the F.I.R., which casts an aspersion on the case of the prosecution.

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.1496 of 2026(2) dt.21-01-2026 3/3 accepting the provisional bail bonds of the petitioners shall verify the criminal antecedent of the petitioners and in the event, if it is found that petitioners have antecedent of even one case, then it would be presumed that petitioners for the purposes of obtaining anticipatory bail had concealed their antecedent before this Court, in that event, the present provisional anticipatory bail order shall not be confirmed, but if on verification, it is found that petitioners are persons with clean antecedent, in that event, the provisional anticipatory bail order shall be confirmed forthwith.
