                                ********

2 11/10/2010 Heard Counsel for the petitioner and the A.P.P.

appearing on behalf of the State.

The petitioner apprehends his arrest in a case

under Section 387 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 17

of the Criminal Law Amendment Act.

The allegation against the petitioner is that on

receipt of the information, his house was raided and

several materials such as letter heads, notes, papers etc.

were recovered which indicate that the petitioner was

member of the Maoists group. Apart from which, there was

a document containing a demand of Rs. 25,000/- from a

brick kiln owner.

Learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that

the petitioner has been made accused because of political

vendetta of the sitting MLA.

All these aspects may be a good ground for grant

of regular bail. However, I am not inclined to grant

anticipatory bail to the above named petitioner.

This application is accordingly dismissed.
