Mr. Abhay Kumar, APP ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE SANJEEV PRAKASH SHARMA ORAL ORDER 13-01-2022 Heard the parties through video conferencing. The petitioners seek bail in anticipation of their arrest in connection with Nardiganj P.S. Case No. 40 of 2020 instituted for the offences punishable under Sections 147, 148, 149, 341, 323, 307, 385, 379, 354 and 448 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 27 of the Arms Act.

Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that an absolute concocted story has been developed alleging that rifle was used and it was blindly fired over all the persons. However,

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.13462 of 2021(3) dt.13-01-2022 2/2 consequently no one has been injured neither any pellet were recovered nor any injury has been caused to any person. Learned counsel submits that the petitioners have no other criminal antecedent.

Learned counsel for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail.

However, taking into consideration the above, I am inclined to allow the petitioners on bail, in the event of arrest they shall be released on anticipatory bail, subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Cr.P.C. (Sanjeev Prakash Sharma, J) Anand Kr.
