IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.21362 of 2011 Md. Shahnabaz Ali @ Sanni @ Md. Sanni @ Sahnabaz, Son of Md. Fsar, resident of Brahapur, P.S.-Ishakchak, District-Bhagalpur. ……………..Petitioner. Versus The State of Bihar ………….Opposite Party. ----------- 2/- 06.07.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel appearing for the State. Apprehending his arrest in connection with Mojahidpur P.S. Case No. 155 of 2010 registered for the offence under sections 414/34 of the Indian Penal Code, the petitioner has prayed for grant of bail. The allegation is that on confidential information the police arrested one accused, Md. Sah Alam @ Sonu at Talaipur Chowk and on interrogation he stated the names of his associate including the petitioner and one Md. Faiaz @ Md. Faizan Khan @ Md. Faiaj @ Md. Faijan Khan and on confessional statement of accused, the police recovered a stolen motorcycle from the house of co-accused, namely Md. Ali Hasib @ Raja. It is submitted on behalf of petitioners that save and except the confessional statement of co-accused, there is no allegation against the petitioner. Nothing has been recovered from the possession of the petitioner and the petitioner has got a clean antecedent. 2 It has also been submitted that during investigation no cogent incriminating material could be collected against the petitioner. It appears from the impugned order that the prayer for bail of the petitioner was rejected with co- accused, Md. Faiaz @ Md. Faizan Khan @ Md. Faiaj @ Md. Faijan Khan. It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that co- accused, namely Md. Faiaz @ Md. Faizan Khan @ Md. Faiaj @ Md. Faijan Khan has already been granted anticipatory bail in Cr. Misc. No. 19382 of 2011 on 30.6.2011 by a Bench of this Court, which appears to be correct in view of the information supplied by N.I.C which is on record. The case of the petitioner is identical to that of co-accused, who has already been granted anticipatory bail. In order to maintain consistency in order, let the petitioner namely Md. Shahnabaz Ali @ Sanni @ Md. Sanni @ Sahnabaz in the event of his arrest at the hands of police or surrender before the Court below, be released on bail in connection with Mojahidpur P.S. Case No. 155 of 2010 on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 5,000/- (Five thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Bhagalpur.
