IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.837 of 2009 PINTU KUMAR PODDAR, son of Ramesh Poddar, resident of village – Bahadurpur, Ward no. 26, P.O. and P.S. and District - Samastipur Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2/ 11.02.2009 Heard. A robbery was committed for which Samastipur Town P.S. Case no. 284 of 2008 was registered. The persons who had assembled at the scene of the occurrence, pointed out to the police that the criminal had fled away in a particular direction. The police went into that direction and captured the present petitioner who was running away. From search of the petitioner, a country made pistol was recovered from his possession with a live cartridge. The contention is that the court below has stated that the petitioner was accused in two cases including the aforementioned Town P.S. Case no. 284 of 2008. I have perused the FIR of that case also during the hearing of the petition as also an order on bail passed by a bench of this court in Cr. Misc. No. 41592 of 2008. The two offences are not interconnected rather they are independent and considering the act and the conduct of the petitioner, I am not inclined to direct his release on bail. Petition is dismissed.
