IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.45022 of 2008 PINTU RAI @ PINTU KUMAR @ PINTU KUMAR RAI Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3. 18.12.2008 Heard Mr. Dudhnath Singh, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr. Dashrath Mehta, learned A. P.P. The petitioner was caught on the spot along with accused Lalan Prasad. The case relates to relieving the informant of Rs.50,000/- which he has withdrawn from S.B.I., Natwar. Five criminals riding on two motor-cycles stopped the informant who was also riding on a motor-cycle and attempted to snatch his jhola. Resistance from the informant attracted one criminal to give blow with the butt part of the gun on his head so as to succeeding in decamping with the money. The people of the locality, who had seen the incident, raised hulla. Others were attracted and one motorcyclist chased the criminals and in this manner two were caught. The contention is that the accused persons, who snatched the jhola, could not be apprehended and this petitioner does not bear the allegation of snatching the jhola. The Court is not fascinated by the argument in view of the fact that the petitioner was caught on chase by persons who could not have really any reason to implicate the petitioner falsely. The petition is dismissed. sudip ( Dharnidhar Jha,J )
