ORAL ORDER
3 10-02-2022 Heard the parties through video conferencing.
Let the defect(s), if any, be removed within four
weeks of starting of the court proceeding in physical mode properly.
The petitioner seeks bail in anticipation of his arrest in connection with Simultala P.S. Case No. 58 of 2020 instituted for the offences punishable under Sections 363 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code.
Taking into consideration the allegation that the lady and small child being not found till date and the informant having cast doubt on the petitioner’s role, it would be essential for getting him custodial interrogation done, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.39905 of 2021(3) dt.10-02-2022 2/2
