Petitioner Versus The State Of Bihar .... .... Opposite Party ====================================================== Appearance : For the Petitioner : Dr. Amrendra Kumar, Advocate. For the Opposite Party : Mr. D. Nandan, A.P.P. ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ASHWANI KUMAR SINGH ORAL ORDER 2 20-06-2012 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsel for the State. This is the second attempt by the petitioner for grant of anticipatory bail in connection with a case registered for the offence punishable under [STATUTE] in which he is one of the named accused. Co-accused Sonu @ Vidhayak was arrested in connection with a case registered under Explosive Substance Act. He made an inculpatory statement involving himself as well as the petitioner and others in committing theft of motorcycle. Upon his statement a stolen motorcycle is said to have been recovered from a place indicated by him. It appears that the petitioner is one of the members of a gang operating in theft and disposal of looted articles, considering which, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the same is rejected. B.Kr./- (Ashwani Kumar Singh, J)
