For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Dhirendra Kumar Sinha For the Opposite Party/s : Mr. Sri Sanjay Kumar ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE KISHORE KUMAR MANDAL ORAL ORDER 10-08-2017 Heard Mr. Dhirendra Kumar Sinha, learned counsel for the petitioners as well as learned Additional P.P. The petitioners apprehend their arrest in Sakurabad P.S. Case No. 11/2017, registered under Sections 341, 323, 324, 307, 379 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code.

While the informant along with his son and others were going, it is alleged that the accused persons intercepted them and snatched the gold chain of the son of the informant. They went to the destination. On way back, an enquiry was made with regard to the chain, whereafter it is alleged that the petitioners assaulted the son of the informant as well as three others, accompanying

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.21879 of 2017 (3) dt.10-08-2017 2/2 him, with various weapons.

Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that injuries sustained by the three injured are not grievous. There is a counter version in the shape of Annexure-2, wherein, two of the petitioners, namely, P-1 Satendra Gupta and P-2 Sarjun Gupta received injuries.

Mr. Dayal opposes the prayer of anticipatory bail and states with the help of the investigating report that three persons have received injuries at the hands of the petitioners. One of the injured, namely, Vicky received grievous injury on his head. Be that as it may, considering the materials available on record, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioners on anticipatory bail. Accordingly, the same is rejected.

If the petitioners surrender before the court below and pray for regular bail, their prayer shall be considered on its own merit in accordance with law.
