IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.41119 of 2008 ANIL DAS … … Petitioner Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR … Opp. Party For the petitioner: Shri Nawal Kishore Singh For the State: Shri Dashrath Mehta, A.P.P. - - - - 2. 24.10.2008 Heard both the sides. The petitioner is in custody in a case under Sections 25(1-b)a and 26 of the Arms Act. During the course of search of the petitioner by the police a country made gun was found concealed in the bundle of fuel wood while other was wrapped inside a colour full pant. One set of two country made pistols was recovered from the cooking utensil which was kept in a corner of a room. The recovery was of four effective arms. The contention is that the petitioner does not bear any criminal antecedent and that the petitioner was not present in the house and that the search and seizure was in his absence. If one could go through the written report, one could find that seeing the police force arriving at his house, the petitioner ran away. The concealment is exhibited from 2 the place from where the same were recovered. The concealment was so haste that it was kept in the corner of a room while running away. Considering the recovery of the arms, I am not inclined to direct the release of the petitioner on bail. The petition is dismissed. Kanth ( Dharnidhar Jha, J.)
