Case brief
What is this about?
Patna High Court, Criminal Miscellaneous No. 50774 of 2025 (Anil Kumar Sinha, J), decided 12-12-2025: second anticipatory bail application of Samresh Kumar Yadav in Aurangabad Mufassil P.S. Case No. 294/2024 (B.N.S. Sections 126(2), 115(2), 352, 303(2), 351(2), 109, 3(5)) rejected; the Court declined to entertain fresh grounds because the first anticipatory bail application had already been rejected on merit. Counsel had urged false implication over a drainage dispute, citing counter case P.S. No. 295/2024 and injury-report discrepancies. FIR narrative mentions an alleged extortion demand of Rs. 5,000/-.
What did the court decide?
The Court recorded that the petitioner sought to argue the matter afresh on certain grounds even though the first anticipatory bail application had already been considered on all relevant factors and rejected on merit.
