Case No.125 of 2019 registered under sections 302/34 of the Indian Penal Code and section 27 of the Arms Act.

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.17804 of 2020(5) dt.04-01-2021 2/3 It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioners that from perusal of the FIR itself, it would transpire that neither the initial altercation was committed by the petitioners nor were they part of the initial altercation between the parties. There is no specific overt act alleged against them. A specific overt act of firing is on Ajit Yadav, Ajay Yadav and Mukesh Yadav. The allegations are general and omnibus. The petitioners have no criminal antecedent.

The application for bail is opposed by learned counsel for the State.

Having heard learned counsel for the parties and taking into consideration the aforesaid facts and circumstances of the case, the main allegation of firing not being against Laltus Yadav and Pawan Yadav, the Court is inclined to enlarge the petitioners on anticipatory bail.

The petitioners are directed to surrender in the Court below within a period of eight weeks from today and in the event of their arrest or surrender in connection with Bind P.S. Case No.125 of 2019 they shall be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs.10,000/-(Rupees Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Judicial Magistrate, Ist Class, Nalanda at Biharsharif,
