IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.35403 of 2009 MD.JASIM Son of Late Abdul Latif Resident of Halim Chowk Police Station-Kishanganj, District-Kishanganj. Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 14/10/2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State. The complicity of the petitioner for an offence under section 414 of the I.P.C. in a racket of theft of motorcycle and its being sold to the persons at low price gets substantiated from the chain of circumstances busted by the police in course of investigation emanating from the recovery of a stolen motorcycle from garage of Md. Zahid Alam, and it is from there that the police could find involvement of one Malik Bastoor, who gave name of Afzal Hussain and Afzal Hussain is said to have named, namely, Ajit and the petitioner. The police had further gone to the house of the petitioner and also Md. Jasim whose name was given by Ajit claiming that the two including the petitioner were the persons dealing in stolen motorcycle. The chain, in fact, does not end there, inasmuch as, on the alleged statement of the petitioner one Md. Miraj was arrested and he gave name of Ajit Kumar, who had, as noted above, indicated involvement of the petitioner. Thus, the petitioner is not as innocent as is sought to be projected by his counsel. Considering recurrence of rampant theft of motorcycle has become an order of the day, this Court is not inclined to grant 2 bail to the petitioner for the present till he would complete judicial custody for a period of one year. With the aforementioned observation this application is dismissed. Abhay Kumar (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
