IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.19983 of 2008 MD.SAYEED @ HAFIZ Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3. 3/7/2008 Heard. On some tip off, the police laid a wait for traffickers in fake currency. When the persons were nabbed different amounts were recovered from different persons. From the blue bag, which was said to be with the petitioner, the police claimed recovering fake currency notes each of 100 denominations totaling upto 45,400/-. The persons were arrested, the notes were seized and the same were presented before the State Bank of India for its opinion about the genuineness of the notes. The bankers who could be the experts on the matter, stated that they were all fake, for reasons as indicated in the F.I.R. The contention is that recovery could not be said to be from the conscious possession of the petitioner and that the allegation of being in possession of fake notes is false and fabricated. There is no reason to doubt the prosecution allegation regarding the petitioner being found in possession, fake currency notes. The personal status of a man could hardly bear with the offence most often white-collar persons are found indulging in like the present type of occurrence. The offence is directly an attempt on disrupting the economy of the country, considering which the petition is dismissed. S.Ali (Dharnidhar Jha, J.)
