The son of the petitioner along with his wife also assaulted the

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.66688 of 2025(3) dt.21-01-2026 2/3 informant and others, besides, there is allegation of snatching of rupees one lakh.

4. Learned Advocate for the petitioner submitted that the present case is nothing but a counter blast to Chhakarbandha P.S. Case No. 1 of 2025, which has been instituted by the person of the petitioner's side. The entire prosecution case falls to the ground for the simple reason that all the injuries which are allegedly sustained to the informant's husband and his brother are found to be simple in nature. To support the aforesaid contention, attention of this Court has been drawn to the injury report as well as the supplementary injury report. The reason behind the said occurrence is said to be a land dispute. The petitioner bears one criminal antecedent; however he is on bail in the said case.

5. On the other hand, learned Advocate for the State, vehemently opposed the bail application and submitted that because of the assault being made by the petitioner, the informant's husband and others have sustained serious injuries.

6. Having considered the submissions advanced by the learned Advocate for the respective parties and taking note of the delay in lodging of the FIR, coupled with the simple nature of injuries, besides the genesis of the occurrence, let the
