1. Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned A.P.P. for the State.
2. The petitioners apprehend their arrest in a case registered for the offences punishable under Sections 126(2), 115(2) and 109 of the BNS.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that petitioner no. 1 has antecedent of two cases and petitioner no. 2 is a person with clean antecedent and the informant alleges that on 11.05.2026 at 10:30 PM after Tilak Ceremony of his daughter, accused persons including the petitioners assaulted his sons Vishal and Dhananjay on account of dispute at the time of dinner by lathi, rod and stone causing injury.
4. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that petitioners have been falsely implicated in the instant case by the informant, it is next submitted that from perusal of the allegations
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.49778 of 2026(2) dt.29-07-2026 2/2 as alleged in the FIR, it would manifest that allegation of assault is not specific and on account of a trivial dispute in the Tilak Cermony, the occurrence is alleged to have taken place.
5. Learned A.P.P. for the State vehemently opposes the anticipatory bail application of the petitioners and submits that informant specifically alleges that in Tilak Ceremony of his daughter, the accused persons assaulted his sons and from perusal of the order impugned, it would manifest that Vishal suffered fracture of nasal bone and the injury has been opined to be grievous. It is thus submitted that allegation of assault may not be specific, but then presence of the accused persons at the place of occurrence along with other accused emboldened them to commit the occurrence of assaulting the sons of the informant causing grievous injury.
6. Considering the submission made by the learned APP for the State, the Court is not inclined to extend the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioners.
7. Accordingly, the application stands rejected. (Satyavrat Verma, J) rajesh/- U T
