Ajay Singh @ Ajay Kumar Singh son of Sri Binda Singh both are resident of village- Patakhaulia, P.S.- Motihari Moffasil, District- East Champaran. Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 27.02.2009 Heard learned counsels for the petitioners and the State. The offence alleged is under section147, 148, 149, 323, 325, 341, 504, 307 & 302 of the Indian Penal Code. Petitioners had earlier moved before this Court for grant of anticipatory bail in Cr. Misc. No. 2353 of 2008, which was rejected as per the order dated 24.06.2008, as contained in Annexure-1 to the petition. The Court while rejecting the application had directed the petitioners to surrender before the Court below and seek regular bail with further direction that the Court below after considering the points raised by the petitioner shall dispose of the application on merit. The petitioner did not surrender. It is submitted on behalf of the petitioners that persons having similar allegations have been allowed anticipatory bail by this Court as per the order dated 05.01.2009 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 25253 of 2008, as contained in Annexure-4 to the petition. - 2 - In view of the earlier order of this court vide Annexure-1, I am not inclined to allow anticipatory bail to the petitioners. Their prayer for grant of anticipatory bail is, accordingly, rejected. However, it goes without saying that in case petitioners surrender and file application for bail, the same shall be considered in accordance with law taking into consideration the submission of the petitioners that persons having similar allegations have been allowed anticipatory bail by this Court as per the order contained in Annexure-4. mcverma ( Shailesh Kumar Sinha,J.)
