Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.66074 of 2025(3) dt.26-11-2025 2/3 submits that the informant named this petitioner due to prior enmity. Petitioner has got clean antecedent as stated in para 3 of the petition is in custody since 03.05.2025.
5. Learned APP opposes the prayer for bail.
6. From perusal of the FIR, case diary and impugned order of the learned Sessions Judge, Aurangabad dated 24.07.2025, it appears that petitioner is not named in the FIR. From perusal of the records, it appears that on the basis of written report of the informant namely Anoj Kumar, FIR has been registered under Sections 126(2), 115(2) and 109 of the BNS, 2023 against unknown person and the allegation is that the informant Anoj Kumar alleging therein that the petitioner had assaulted his father Lakhan Rajwar causing severe injury on his left hand and check. It appears that informant is not the eye witness of this case as he is the hearsay witness. From bare perusal of the case diary in para 24, the statement of injured Lakhan Rajwar stated before the Investigating Officer that he was going to taking liquor at the side of Arhar and was assaulted by the accused person by tangi but after interrogation this witness did not disclose the time of the occurrence, so considering all these aspects of the case and submissions of learned counsel for the petitioner, I am inclined to enlarge the
