JUSTICE RAJESH KUMAR VERMA ORAL ORDER 09-10-2023 Heard Mr. Syed Asgher Najmi, learned counsel for the petitioners and Mr. Abhay Kumar Roy, learned A.P.P. for the State. The petitioners apprehend their arrest in Khizarsarai (Sarbahda OP) P.S.

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.40766 of 2023(4) dt.09-10-2023 2/3 Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submits that the petitioners are innocent and have falsely been implicated in this case. He further submits that on bare perusal of the F.I.R., it appears that the present occurrence took place due to a pity dispute as the dog of Mahendra Kumar, petitioner No.1 sat on the door of the informant and there was no intention to assault the family members of the informant. He further submits that on an scuffle between the parties both of them have lodged case and counter case against each other. He further submits that there is general and omnibus allegation against the petitioners and no specific allegation of assault or any overt act is attributed to them except one Shiv Shankar Yadav who alleged assaulted the informant by iron rod due to which leg of the informant got fractured but no injury has been inflicted to the informant on any vital part of his body.

Learned A.P.P. for the State has opposed the prayer for bail of the petitioners.

Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, let the, above named, petitioners, in the event of their arrest or surrender before the court below within a period of 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 Chief Judicial Magistrate-IV, Gaya in connection with Khizarsarai (Sarbahda OP) P.S.
