Petitioner

Versus

The State of Bihar .... .... Opposite Party ====================================================== Appearance :

For the Petitioner : Mr. Indu Bhushan, Advocate.

For the Opposite Party : Mr. Nand Kumar(App) ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE PRABHAT KUMAR JHA ORAL ORDER 24-04-2017 Heard both sides.

The petitioner apprehends his arrest in Jamalpur P.S. Case No. 120 of 2016 registered for the offences punishable under Section 307 and other Sections of the Indian Penal Code. The informant alleged that the petitioner Soli Tanti and Laddu Tanti firstly abused her father-in-law and thereafter they came with axe and pharsa and assaulted her cousin father-in-law Raju Rajak. When the informant raised alarm the petitioner and Laddu Tanti assaulted her with axe and pharsa. The informant got many bleeding injuries. The accused persons also assaulted others. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that there is omnibus and general allegation of assault against the petitioner, but from perusal of the case diary it appears that Soli Tanti, the petitioner and Laddu Tanti are alleged to have assaulted the

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.15560 of 2017 (3) dt.24-04-2017 2/2 informant and Raju Rajak. Many injuries were found on their persons. It appears that Laddu Tanti has already been enlarged on regular bail vide B.A. No. 787 of 2016, dated 09.01.2017 by the court below.

Considering the facts aforesaid and the fact that the petitioner is also alleged to have assaulted the informant and her cousin father-in-law causing simple as well as grievous injuries, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner above named on anticipatory bail. Accordingly, the same is rejected. The petitioner, if so advised, may surrender before the court below within four weeks from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order and pray for regular bail and the court below shall consider the prayer for regular bail of the petitioner taking into consideration that Laddu Tanti has already been granted bail.
