Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.49367 of 2025(3) dt.08-10-2025 2/3 due to village politics. There is a case and counter case between the parties. Earlier, the petitioner lodged the F.I.R. on 09.04.2025 against the informant side bearing Sugauli P.S. Case No. 164 of 2025. Both the parties are co-villagers and there is a previous enmity between them regarding land. The petitioner has no criminal antecedent and is languishing in judicial custody since 11.04.2025 without any rhymes or reason.

5. On the other hand, learned A.P.P. for the State has vehemently opposed the prayer for grant of bail to the petitioner, stating that there is specific allegation against the petitioner of assaulting the informant's husband and her father-in-law by means of farsa. The Investigating Officer, after completion of investigation, has submitted charge-sheet against the petitioner for offence under Sections 126(2), 115(2), 118(1), 109, 76, 352, 351(2), 3(5) of the Bhartiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023. The injury report supports the prosecution case and, hence, the petitioner does not deserve bail.

6. Having heard rival contention of both the parties and considering the entire facts and circumstances of the case as also taking into account the period of custody of the petitioner and the petitioner having no criminal antecedent, let the petitioner, abovenamed, be released on bail on furnishing bail
