BHAGALPUR. ------ PETITIONER. Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----- OPP. PARTY. ----------- For the petitioner: Mr. Ajay Kumar Jha Advocate. For the State: Mr. Nirbhay Kumar Singh APP. 05. 27.04.2009 Heard both sides. The sole petitioner seeks anticipatory bail in a case instituted under Sections 25(1-b) A/26 and 35 of the Arms Act. As per allegation, the petitioner on seeing the police personnel, entered into a house and on suspicion when police entered into the house they caught one person and a large number of arms and ammunition were recovered therefrom. The man, who was caught by the police at the spot, disclosed that the person who had just escaped from the place of occurrence is his father(petitioner). Referring to the seizure memo learned counsel for the petitioner submits that admittedly the recoveries of the arms/ ammunition were made from the house of his son. It is contended that he is living separately from his son. Learned counsel for the State, on the other hand, submits that in course of investigation, the matter was supervised by the Dy.S.P., who, has found substance in the allegation, in as much as, charge sheet has already been 2 submitted. Having regard to the rival submissions and after going through the record, this court is not inclined to extend to the petitioner the privilege of anticipatory bail. Accordingly, application seeking anticipatory bail stands rejected. The petitioner may surrender in the court below and pray for regular bail within four weeks from today. In the event of his making such an application within the time stipulated hereinabove, the court below shall consider his case on its own merit uninfluenced by the order passed by this court in the present proceeding.
