2. The petitioners seek pre-arrest bail in connection with Raghunathpur P.S. Case No. 68/2025 registered for the offence(s) punishable under Sections 126(2),115(2),118(1),109,351(2),352,3(5) of the BNS.
3. As per the allegation made in the FIR, all the accused persons including the petitioners assaulted the informant with a common intention to kill.
4. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners submitted that petitioners are innocent and have
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.55630 of 2025(2) dt.08-09-2025 2/3 falsely been implicated in the present case due to previous enmity between the parties. He further submitted that the falsity of allegation can be seen from the very manner in which the FIR has been lodged, as at one place, the informant has given information that he ran to police station to lodge an FIR but at the same time, the FIR has been lodged after delay of 10 days. The injury found on the person of the informant has been alleged against all the accused persons including the petitioners. Petitioners have clean antecedents.
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 as, having considered the manner in which allegation has been levelled against the petitioners and other co-accused and the injury as has been found on the person of the informant has been alleged against all the accused persons including the petitioners and previous enmity between the parties has not been denied, I am of the opinion that petitioners, who are having clean antecedents, 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
Patna High Court CR. MISC.
