IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.22242 of 2011 Munshi Prasad, son of Baidyanath Prasad, resident of village- Hiramani, P.S. Ghhuradano, District-East Champaran. ………………………………………………………Petitioner. Versus The State Of Bihar…………………………….Opposite Party. ----------- For the Petitioner : Mr. Anang Mahto, Advocate. For the State : Mr. Ganesh Prasad Singh, A.P.P. ------- 2. 13.7.2011. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned A.P.P. for the State. The petitioner apprehends his arrest in connection with Ref: Case O/C.10/2006, Tr. No.949 of 2011 registered under Sections 41, 42, 52 and 55 of the Indian Forest Act. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that the petitioner is a carpenter of the concerned Saw Mill and was working there on the alleged time of occurrence when the seizure was made by the authority of the Forest Department. It has also been submitted that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in this case by the owner of the concerned Saw Mill, namely, Suresh Paswan, with a view to put pressure upon him so that he could not 2 demand the claimed dues from him and has also got Jimmanana of the seized materials. In the written report, the allegation against the petitioner is that he was running illegal saw mill and on raid by the officials of the Forest Department, Band Saw, Diesel Engine, woods etc. were recovered which were handed over to Suresh Paswan on Jimmanama. Having regard to the facts and the circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. The prayer of the petitioner for anticipatory bail is rejected. However, it is made clear that the trial court will not be prejudiced by this order at the time of hearing of regular bail petition of the petitioner and the same shall be disposed of on its own merit in accordance with law.
