Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.56846 of 2023(2) dt.30-08-2023 2/3 present case and they are having a clean antecedent. The learned counsel for the petitioners has further submitted, by referring to paragraph no. 7 of the present petition that the injuries, sustained by the informant and his son, have been found to be simple in nature. It is further submitted that the present case arises out of case and counter case.

5.

Per contra, the learned APP for the State has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail.

6.

Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioners, taking into account the materials available on record as also considering the fact that it is the specific averment of the petitioners that the injuries, sustained by the injured persons, have been found to be simple in nature, apart from the fact that the petitioners are having a clean antecedent, I deem it fit and proper to admit the petitioners to the privilege of anticipatory bail.

7.

Accordingly, the petitioners are directed to be enlarged on anticipatory bail, in the event of their arrest or surrender before the court below within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order, on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (rupees ten thousand) each with two
