4. It is submitted by learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner that petitioner is quite innocent and has committed no offence. As a matter of fact, petitioner is a 67 years old land lord and informant is a tenant in the house of this petitioner and due to landlord tenant dispute, this false and concocted case has been lodged. The present case is counterblast of Dalsingsarai P.S. Case No. 517 of 2025 which was lodged prior to lodging of the present F.I.R. by the wife of this petitioner against informant stating therein that she had rented out ground floor of her house to Kanchan Kumari and she herself resides on the first floor and second floor of the house is also rented.
She alleged that when this petitioner came from Bombay, he came to know about wrong people visiting the tenant Kanchan Kumari and thus, this petitioner installed C.C.T.V. cameras in the house and asked Kanchan Kumari to vacate the room and on 25.12.2025, Kanchan Kumari came to the first floor and demanded her mobile phone which was allegedly stolen by them and on protest, she assaulted this petitioner, his wife and his son and also snatched gold chain and fell down from the stairs while going down and in retaliation, and only with a view to save her skin from the aforesaid case, this false and concocted case has been lodged.
