IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Criminal Miscellaneous No.12809 of 2012 ====================================================== Chandan Kumar .... .... Petitioner/s Versus The State Of Bihar .... .... Opposite Party/s ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE DINESH KUMAR SINGH ORAL ORDER 03/ 21-06-2012 Heard learned counsels for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner is apprehending his arrest in a case registered for the offences punishable under [STATUTE] and 27 of the Arms Act. The specific accusation of causing firearm injury is against Kundan on the order of Bibha Devi. It is alleged against the petitioner that he also made firing. It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that post-mortem reflects only one injury and Bibha Devi has been granted anticipatory bail vide Cr. Misc. No. 3206 of 2012. This Court is not inclined to grant anticipatory to the petitioner only on the ground that Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.12809 of 2012 (3) dt.21-06-2012 2/2 the petitioner has criminal antecedent but keeping in view of the fact that other accused Bibha Devi has been granted anticipatory bail, I see no reason for learned court below not to consider the regular bail of the petitioner if the petitioner surrenders before the learned court below within a period of six weeks from today in connection with Karpi P.S. Case No. 56 of 2011 pending in the court of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Jehanabad. With the aforesaid observation, this application is disposed of.
