IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.36963 of 2008 ANIL KUMAR JHA, son of Shree Kishore Jha, resident of Village Dogharia, P.S. Kochadhaman, District Kishanganj ----- Petitioner Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 26.11.2008 Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner is apprehending his arrest in connection with Kishanganj P.S. Case No.166/2008 for the offences under sections 25(1-b) a, 26 and 35 of the Arms Act. The allegation is that one motor- cycle was intercepted by the police in the Civil Court premises and on search being made, illegal arms were recovered from the dickey of the said motorcycle. The said motorcycle was driven by co-accused Hari Lal Mandal. He was taken to the police station where he disclosed that he along with the petitioner had gone to the Civil Court and further stated that the illegal arms were kept by the petitioner in the dickey. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the illegal arms were not recovered from the possession of the 2 petitioner. The petitioner is a social worker, but no plausible explanation is being given as to why his name has been disclosed by the co- accused Hari Lal Mandal. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and the nature of the allegation, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. The application is, accordingly, dismissed.
