JUSTICE SATYAVRAT VERMA ORAL ORDER 16-09-2022 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned A.P.P. for the State through virtual Court proceedings.

The petitioners apprehend their arrest in a case registered for the offences punishable under Sections 341, 342, 323, 307, 504 and 506/34 of the Indian Penal Code. The informant alleges that on 07.11.2021 at about 1:00 pm, the accused persons including the petitioners came and asked from the husband of the informant as to why he makes phone call at their house and started abusing him and when her mother-in-law forbade not to abuse, then the petitioner started
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.14420 of 2022(2) dt.16-09-2022 2/3 assaulting them and assaulted her mother-in-law and husband brutally, thereafter her mother-in-law was brought to Rupauli Referral Hospital, from where the doctor had referred her to Purnea for better treatment.
Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that petitioners are persons with clean antecedent and have been falsely implicated in the present case, it is next submitted that the informant's husband had committed sexual offence with the daughter of the petitioner no. 2 for which Rupauli P.S. Case No. 183 of 2021 dated 08.11.2021 was instituted. Learned counsel further submits that since the husband of the informant had committed a heinous offence with daughter of the petitioner no. 2 as such they had gone to the house of the informant searching the husband and it appears that this scuffle took place in which the mother-in-law of the informant fell and the informant took the same as an opportunity to implicate the petitioners as she was aware of the misdeeds of her husband.
Learned A.P.P. for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners.
Considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioners, the petitioners above-named, in the event of their arrest or surrender before the learned Court below
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.14420 of 2022(2) dt.16-09-2022 3/3 within a period of six weeks from today, be released on anticipatory bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned court below where the case is pending/successor court in connection with Rupauli P.S.
