IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.32189 of 2008 LAKHI PASWAN Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 22.8.2008 Heard. The case relates to commission of theft inside the shop of the informant and taking away the money which was kept by her and which was also part of the sale proceeds. The lady alleged that an amount of Rs.5,568/- was found missing and she suspected after learning from others that this petitioner was found loitering near her shop. The petitioner has a reputation of being a thief in the locality. The house of the petitioner was searched and the theft amount which was mentioned in the written report was recovered and it tallied exactly with the description of the denominations of the currency notes. The contention is that the petitioner has been made an scapegoat and that there is some manipulations in the FIR inasmuch the time of receipt of the report as appearing at the form of the FIR does not tally with the time given in the written report. Considering the recovery of the currency notes from the petitioner, I am not inclined to release the petitioner on bail. Petition is dismissed. B.Kr. ( Dharnidhar Jha, J. )
