1. Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State.
2. This application, for grant of anticipatory bail, arises out of Kabaiya Police Station Case No. 264 of 2024, disclosing offences under Sections 126(2), 115(2), 351, 352, 74, 303(2), 3(5) of the BNS, 2023.
3. As per the prosecution case, on 02.12.2024, at about 2 pm, the petitioner misbehaved with the informant, torn her cloth, and when the brother of the informant intervened in order to save the informant, the petitioner assaulted him also and snatched a sum of Rs. 1,45,000/- from his pocket, including gold chain, etc.
4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the present FIR has been lodged as a counterblast to the FIR
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.52870 of 2025(3) dt.15-11-2025 2/3 lodged by the wife of the petitioner bearing Kabaiya P.S. Case No. 263 of 2024 registered for the offences punishable under Sections 126(2), 115(2), 110, 74, 351, 352, 92 and 3(5) of the BNS, 2023. The FIR lodged by the side of the petitioner is prior in time to the present FIR. The petitioner and the informant are agnates having land dispute regarding partition between them. The allegation of snatching of Rs. 1,45,000/- from the pocket of brother of the informant is improbable and concocted.
5. Having regard to the submissions made on behalf of the parties and taking into consideration the nature of allegation and the fact that there is a case and counter-case, both the parties are agnates having dispute regarding partition between them, I am inclined to grant the petitioner privilege of anticipatory bail.
6. This application is, accordingly, allowed.
7. Let the petitioner, above named, in the event of his arrest or surrender before the Court below within four weeks, be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Lakhisarai, in connection with Kabaiya Police Station Case No. 264 of 2024, subject to the condition laid down under Section
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.52870 of 2025(3) dt.15-11-2025 3/3 438 (2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure/Section 482(2) of the BNSS, 2023.
