4. Learned Senior Counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner has clean antecedent and he has falsely been implicated in the present case. It is next submitted that it appears from the FIR that due to some pity dispute the present occurrence has taken place and there is no specific allegation of assault or overt act against the petitioner rather the allegations are general and omnibus in nature. It is next submitted that there
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.30104 of 2026(3) dt.08-07-2026 3/3 is a case and counter-case between both the parties.
5. The learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State and learned counsel for the informant have vehemently opposed the prayer for bail of the petitioner and submit that from perusal of the FIR it appears that there is direct and specific allegation of assault attributed against the petitioner that he has assaulted to the uncle of the informant which is supported by the medical evidence (postmortem report). Apart from aforesaid, the petitioner has also abused one Anjan Kumari.
6. Considering the nature of allegation and the fact that there is direct and specific allegation of assault supported by the medical evidence, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail in connection with Mohanpur P.S. Case No. 394 of 2025 pending in the court of learned S.D.J.M., Sherghati, District-Gaya.
7. Prayer is refused.
