For the Petitioner/s :

Mr. Dinesh Prasad Verma, Advocate For the Opposite Party/s :

Mr. Prem Kumar Jha, APP ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE PURNENDU SINGH ORAL ORDER 10-12-2025 Heard Mr. Dinesh Prasad Verma, learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners and Mr. Prem Kumar Jha, learned APP for the State.

2. The petitioners seek pre-arrest bail in connection with Madhepura P.S. Case No. 60/2025 registered for the offence(s) punishable under Sections 115(2), 126(2), 109, 118(1), 76, 303(2), 352, 3(5) of the BNS.

3. As per the allegation made in the FIR, the petitioners allegedly assaulted the wife of the informant on her head by means of dabiya.

4. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners submitted that the petitioners are innocent and they

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.55239 of 2025(4) dt.10-12-2025 2/3 have falsely been implicated in the present case. Injury caused to the wife of the informant is lacerated one, though it is on the frontal region of the brain but there is only one injury, which creates doubt, as to whether either of the petitioners who have caused the injury. In absence of specific litigation and the opinion of doctor which describes that the injury sustained is simple in nature, the petitioners seek to be released on pre-arrest bail.

5. Learned APP for the State vehemently opposed the prayer for grant of pre-arrest bail.

6. Having considered the rival submissions made on behalf of the parties, as well, having perused the allegation made in the FIR and the fact that the injury sustained by the wife of the informant is simple in nature, I am of the opinion that petitioners have, prima facie, made out a case to be released on pre-arrest bail.

7. The petitioners, above named, are directed to be released on pre-arrest bail, in the event of their arrest or surrender before the learned District Court within a period of four weeks from today, on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned District Court where the case

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.55239 of 2025(4) dt.10-12-2025 3/3 is pending in connection with Madhepura P.S. Case No. 60/2025, subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 482(2) of the BNSS.

8. The learned District Court is directed to verify the criminal antecedent of the petitioners and if it is found that the petitioners are involved in some other cases, as what has been stated in paragraph no.3 of the bail application, this order will automatically lose its force.
