IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.34033 of 2008 MANISH KUMAR S/o- Sitabi Yadav R/o- Sita Kund Dih P.S.- Muffasil District - Munger Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 12.11.2008 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. Petitioner is an accused in a case registered under Sections 419 and 420 of the Indian Penal Code. The allegation against the petitioner is to the effect that for selection on the post of Constable, petitioner was issued admit card/interview letter. However, petitioner did not go himself and in his place one Rajeev Kumar went for the Physical Test. The said Rajeev Kumar was caught and he stated that he is taking the physical test in place of petitioner and from his possession the interview letter which was issued to the petitioner was recovered from his possession. It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that the petitioner did not know at all as to how the said Rajesh Kumar appeared in the said selection since petitioner was not interested. Learned counsel for the State submits that the allegation is serious with regard to the impersonation and - 2 - cheating by the petitioner since the interview letter was issued to the petitioner, however, he allowed the another person namely, Rajesh Kumar to appear in his place. As such, petitioner is not deserved to be released on anticipatory bail. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, prayer for bail on behalf of the petitioner is rejected. Jagdish (Shailesh Kumar Sinha,J)
