1. Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State.
2. This application, for grant of anticipatory bail, arises out of Garkha Police Station Case No. 770 of 2024, dated 17.12.2024, disclosing offences under Sections 191(2)/190/126(2)/115(2)/118(1)/303(2) of the Bhartiya Nyaya Sanhita.
3. The prosecution case, as per the First Information Report, is that on 16.12.2024, in the afternoon, the petitioner, along with other accused persons, total 16 in numbers, armed with weapons, arrived at the door of the informant and the petitioner assaulted the informant by means of farsa on his head causing injury.
4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.15125 of 2025(2) dt.08-04-2025 2/3 petitioner has falsely been implicated in the present case with oblique motive inasmuch as the son of the informant fired on the chest of Mukesh Ram, who is agnate of the petitioner, for which, Garkha Police Station Case No. 766 of 2024 has been lodged. The present First Information Report has been lodged in order to create pressure upon the family members of the petitioner. He next submits that from perusal of the impugned order, it appears that injury caused to the informant has been discussed, but nature of injury has not been mentioned as grievous. It further appears that the name of the injured as appears in the injury report is Rakesh Singh, whereas, the name of the informant is Samrendra Kumar. Accordingly, the submission is that the injury caused to the victim is simple in nature. He further submits that the entire family members of the petitioner and his agnates total 16 in numbers have been made accused.
5. Having regard to the submissions made on behalf of the parties and taking into consideration the nature of allegation and the fact that injury has not been described as grievous in nature and there appears to be previous dispute between the parties, I am inclined to grant the
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.15125 of 2025(2) dt.08-04-2025 3/3 petitioner privilege of anticipatory bail.
6. This application is, accordingly, allowed.
7. Let the petitioner, above named, in the event of his arrest or surrender before the Court below within four weeks, be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (Ten Thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Additional Judicial Magistrate First Class, Chhapra, in connection with Garkha Police Station Case No. 770 of 2024, subject to the condition laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bhartiya Nagrik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
