4. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners submitted that petitioners are innocent and have falsely been implicated in the present case due to land dispute. Learned counsel further submitted that specific information has been given in paragraph no.10 of the petition that the petitioners and informant are agnates and next door neighbour. The injury sustained by the informant and her son is simple in nature and the said fact has also come in the impugned order. Petitioners have clean antecedent. On these grounds, petitioners seek to be released on pre-arrest bail.
5. Learned APP for the State vehemently opposed the prayer for grant of pre-arrest bail.
6. Having considered the rival submissions made on behalf of the parties, as well as, having perused the allegation made in the FIR and also the fact that the injury sustained by the informant and her son is simple in nature, I am of the opinion that petitioners, who are having clean antecedents, have, prima facie, made out a case to be released on pre-arrest bail.
7. The petitioners, above named, are directed to be released on pre-arrest bail, in the event of their arrest or surrender before the learned District Court within a period of
Patna High Court CR. MISC.
