JUSTICE HEMANT KUMAR SRIVASTAVA ORAL ORDER 17-12-2018 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners as well as learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State. Petitioners apprehend their arrest in connection with C.R. Case No. 66 of 2017 in which cognizance has been taken for the offences punishable under Sections 341, 323, 354, 504 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 3 of Witchcraft Act. The petitioners have been summoned to face trial for the offences punishable under Sections 341, 323, 354, 504 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 3 of Witch Craft Act in a

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.66126 of 2018(2) dt.17-12-2018 2/2 complaint case. Although, some serious allegations have been levelled against the petitioners but admittedly, the learned court below did not find prima facie case for the offences punishable under the provisions of S.C./S.T. (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. Moreover, it would appear from perusal of the complaint petition itself that land dispute is admitted between the parties.

Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances as well as submissions of the parties and also taking note of this fact that petitioners do not have any criminal antecedent which is evident from perusal of para 3 of the petition, this anticipatory bail petition is allowed and it is ordered that petitioners, in the event of their arrest/ surrender within four weeks from the date of receipt of this order to the court concerned, shall be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs 10,000/- (ten thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Benipatti, Madhubani in C.R. Case No. 66 of 2017 subject to conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Cr.P.C.
