Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.47664 of 2024(2) dt.07-08-2024 2/3 petitioners are innocent and they have been falsely implicated in this case. It is submitted that the alleged date of occurrence of abusing and attempt to assault is 02.12.2018 and this complaint case was filed on 11.12.2018, i.e., after delay of 9 days and no information was given to the police, which makes the story dated 02.12.2018 highly doubtful.

The petitioner no. 2 is a lady and she was appointed as A.N.M. in Primary Health Center on 21.09.2019 after death of her husband. So far other accused persons are concerned, the allegation against them is only of abusing and threatening. There is no specific allegation against the petitioners in this case. Lastly, it has been submitted that petitioner no. 2 has one criminal case and petitioner nos. 1 and 3 have no criminal case against them.
