IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.17602 of 2008 RAJ KUMAR MANJHI @ RAJU @ RAJU KUMAR MANJHI Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3. 12.5.2008. The petitioner, one of the F.I.R. named accused of Siwan Muffasil P.S. Case No.267 of 2006 registered under Sections 406, 420, 463, 465, 471, 405, 120-B I.P.C. and 138 Negotiable Instrument Act, apprehends his arrest in connection therewith and has prayed for anticipatory bail. The allegation against the petitioner is that he and the informant while studying together at Allahabad, had come into close contact and taking advantage thereof the petitioner had shown an advertisement and disclosed that there was huge vacancy of Clerks at Palam Airport , Delhi and under the enticement that his Phupha , Singhashan Manjhi and Phuphi, Shila Manjhi, are appointing authority had requested him to get as many candidates as possible so that the candidates on payment of Rs.3,00,000/- each would get appointment. It is also alleged that on the said assurance the informant for the appointment of 8 candidates had paid Rs.12,00,000/- towards half of the demanded sum and subsequently paid the balance amount of 12,00,000/- but the admit card for only two candidates was handed over and it was learnt that there would be no examination. It was also alleged that when a refund of the amount was asked for 7 forged cheques were issued for different amounts which allegedly bounced and he was threatened to forget about the money. Due regard being had to the nature of the offences, I am not - 2 - inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner as he happens to be the primary culprit. Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail is rejected. . Sanjay/- (Abhijit Sinha,J)
