4.
Learned counsel for the petitioners next submits that petitioners have been falsely implicated in the instant case by the informant. It is further submitted that from perusal of allegation as alleged in the FIR, it would manifest that the same does not record the reason for the occurrence. It is next submitted that on account of dispute relating to land, an altercation had taken place, in which both sides assaulted each other. It is also submitted that Baleshwar Mishra had filed a Title Suit No. 78 of 2021, which is pending adjudication in the
3/5 court of learned Civil Judge, senior division, Dalsinghsarai in which father of the informant was impleaded as Defendant No. 4, since he was a subsequent purchaser of the land in dispute. It is submitted that since father of the informant was trying to capture the land, which is subject matter of dispute in Title Suit No. 78 of 2021, as such the occurrence took place, hence FIR does not record any reason for the occurrence. 5.
Learned A.P.P. for the State and the learned counsel appearing on behalf of the informant oppose the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner. The learned counsel appearing on behalf of the informant submits that there is specific allegation of assaulting the father of the informant against Govind, Gautam and Rambabu. It is also submitted that even the injuries suffered by the father of the informant have been opined to be grievous and his leg stands fractured with number of stitches on the parietal region, which is vital part of the body. It is also submitted that no doubt allegation of assault is not specific, but then the father of the informant has suffered multiple injuries, on which learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners submits that Rambabu Mishra is aged about 57 years and his sons, Govind and Gautam have also been implicated.
4/5 6.
It is next submitted by the learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners that Rambabu Mishra, who has remained a person with clean antecedent all throughout has been implicated only with a view to coerce his sons into submission. It is next submitted that Petitioner Nos. 1 and 5 were not named in the FIR and they came to be implicated subsequently and allegation against Saurav is ornamental in nature.
7.
Considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioners, the Court is not inclined to extend the privilege of anticipatory bail to Petitioner No. 2 and 3. 8.
Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner No. 2 (Govind Kumar @ Govind Kumar Mishra @ Govind Mishra) and 3 (Gautam Kumar Mishra @ Gautam Mishra) is rejected.
