1. Heard the parties.

2. The petitioner apprehends his arrest in connection with Rajapakar P.S. Case No. 39 / 2025 dated 31.01.2025 registered under Sections 115(2), 109, 303(2), 140(1) and 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023.

3. As per the first information report on the night of 30.01.2025 approximately at 8:30 P.M. the victim (brother of the informant) Gautam Kumar received a telephone call from the co-accused / Ayush Kumar. Subsequently, Ayush Kumar arrived at the door of the informant, took his brother away on his motorcycle. After some time, the informant received a phone call from his brother that the co-accused / Ayush Kumar was attempting to kill him. His brother informed that Ayush Kumar

2/4 along with the co-accused person Ranjan Kumar i.e. petitioner and other co-accused forcibly abducted him and took him to some other place and subjected him to severe physical assault due to which he sustained injury. The informant's brother was thrown out of the vehicle near six - lane highway at Kalyanpur where the informant and his family members found his brother (victim) in unconscious condition. The victim was admitted to Community Health Centre, Rajapakar and thereafter he was shifted to a private hospital.

4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner has falsely been implicated in this case due to the fact that the informant and the victim along with others tried to commit theft of the materials kept for Ganga Bridge Project in which the petitioner is a security guard. The entire family members of the petitioner including his mother has also been made accused. The allegation against the petitioner and others are general and omnibus in nature and during the course of investigation statement of the injured - victim has not been recorded. The injury sustained by the victim is simple in nature as per the injury report discussed in the order of the Additional Sessions Judge-V, Vaishali, Hajipur.

5. On the other hand, learned counsel for the informant

3/4 vehemently opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail and submits that though the doctor has opined the nature of injury as simple but from perusal of the photographs and summary of the victim Gautam Kumar given by the private hospital and Krishna Private Ultrasound the fracture of occipital bone has been seen in right side whereas the government doctor has wrongly given the nature of injury as simple ignoring the dimension of injury on the head of the victim having length -6 inch, width- 1 inch and depth- 4 cm. The photo graph of the victim has also been annexed with the counter affidavit showing serious condition of the victim.

6. Learned counsel for the State argued that statement of the victim has not been recorded during the course of investigation by the Police and the petitioner is having criminal antecedent also.

7. Regard being had to the submission made by the parties, taking into consideration the fact that general and omnibus allegation has been levelled against the petitioner, doctor has opined the injury as simple in nature and statement of the victim has not been recorded during course of investigation, accordingly, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

4/4

8. Let the petitioner, above named, be released on anticipatory bail in the event of arrest or surrender before the court below within a period of four weeks from today on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (rupees ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Sri Kushan Kumar, learned Judicial Magistrate 1st Class, Vaishali at Hajipur in connection with Rajapakar P.S. Case No. 39 / 2025 subject to the condition as laid down under Section 482 (2) of the B.N.S.S. 2023.
