Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.81017 of 2025(2) dt.09-12-2025 2/3 by this petitioner, co-accused Saurabh Mishra has assaulted the informant by means of farsa and thereupon, one Sandeep Mishra resorted firing due to which the cousin of the informant also sustained bullet injury. There is allegation against the petitioner of snatching of gold chain worth Rs. 1,10,000/-. 4. Learned Advocate for the petitioner submitted that due to previous enmity, the name of the petitioner has been implicated in this case, on account of he being karta of the family. Besides, the petitioner is currently working as a Constable under Bihar Special Armed Police-12 and thus, an additional reason to implicate his name in order to wreck vengeance and get a disciplinary action started against him at the level of the department. Even if the allegation taken to be true for the sake of argument, admittedly no injury has attributed to the petitioner. So far the allegation of snatching of valuables is concerned, the same is concocted one.
The petitioner bears fair antecedent and he submits that he will fully co-operate in the proceeding of the Court and would not indulge in tampering of the evidence or intimidating the witnesses. 5. On the other hand, learned Advocate for the State opposed the pre-arrest bail application and submits that the petitioner has actively participated in the crime and snatched the
