Petitioner has got clean antecedent as stated in para 3 of the petition is in custody since 07.01.2025.
5. Learned APP opposes the prayer for bail.
6. From perusal of the FIR and also perused the impugned order dated 11.03.2025 passed by the learned Additional Sessions Judge-V Vaishali at Hajipur, it appears that petitioner is named in the FIR. From perusal of the records, it appears that on the basis of fardbeyan of the informant Vijay Rai, FIR has been lodged under Sections 341, 323, 324, 307, 427, 379, 504 and 506 of the Indian Penal Code against five accused persons including the present petitioner Vikash Kumar @ Vikas Kumar. There is specific allegation against the accused persons namely Rakesh Rai and Vikash Kumar that they started hurling abusive words for the informant's family and when it was objected by the informant then the accused persons hit by Dab (an iron made object) upon the informant and when the informant tried to save him, the Dab hit the informant's stomach and the abdomen became ruptered. From perusal of the
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.25601 of 2025(2) dt.05-05-2025 3/3 impugned order, at para 7, it also appears that the informant Vijay Rai sustained oblique incised wound about 12" long extending from lower part of chest to upper part of abdomen on left lateral part (muscle thickness), incised wound over left forearm about 4" in length, muscle thickness, 1" width and incised wound over left forearm about 6" in length, bone was exposed, 1" width and all the injuries have been caused by sharp object and nature of the injury is grievous as shows facture of left ulna caused by sharp hard weapon, so considering the facts and circumstances of the case, nature of specific allegation against the petitioner and the gravity of offence upon the informant with Dab (iron made object) on his abdomen, i.e., the vital part of the body, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner.
7. Prayer for regular bail of the petitioner is hereby rejected.
