IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.30565 of 2010 SHAMSUDDIN KHAN @ SHAMSHAD Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 02. 04.01.2011 Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. Petitioner is said driver of the truck on which logs of wood allegedly taken from protected area is recovered. Submission of the learned counsel for petitioner is that he was driving the truck under instruction of its owner of the truck having no concern with wood; may be a good defence, but the manner in which he was driving truck to cause injuries to the raiding party damaging the jeep on which they were chasing this truck and his act of absconding, disentitle him for anticipatory bail. Accordingly, the prayer of petitioner for anticipatory bail stands rejected. However, petitioner is at liberty to surrender in the court below and pray for regular bail which shall be decided on its own merit without being prejudiced by this rejection order.
