Patna High Court CR. APP (SJ) No.1593 of 2023(4) dt.13-07-2023 2/3 persons armed with Bhala, Talwar and farsa started abusing and assaulting to the informant and snatched Rs. 1100/- from the informant's pocket. The allegation against the appellant is of assaulting the son of the informant, due to which he sustained injury.

It is submitted by learned counsel for the appellant that appellant has been falsely implicated in this case due to dirty village politics. He has not taken the caste name of the informant in public view. No offence is made out under the provisions of the SC/ST Act against him. The injury, which was sustained to the informant's son by the appellant is simple in nature. The appellant and the informant are co-villagers and residing in the same village. The appellant has no intention to disgrace the image of the informant in public view. He is languishing in judicial custody since 24.02.2023. The appeal for bail is opposed by learned Spl. P.P. for the State.

Having heard learned counsel for the parties and taking into consideration, the Court is inclined to allow this appeal. Accordingly, the appeal is allowed and the impugned order dated 18.03.2023 arising out of Sheikhpura (SC/ST) P.S. Case No. 50 of 2022 is hereby set aside.
