2. The petitioner seeks bail in a case registered for the offence punishable under Sections 126 (2), 115 (2), 75, 352, 351 (2)/ 351 (3) and 3 (5) of B.N.S and Sections 10 and 12 of POCSO Act.
3. As per the prosecution case, there are allegations against the petitioner and another that they harassed the informant's daughter and other girls of the school, used obscene language towards them, and physically assaulted them.
4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.74131 of 2025(4) dt.11-02-2026 2/3 petitioner is a school teacher and since he has a strict behaviour in the class, this was wrongly inferred as him harassing the girls. It has been stated that he never spoke any vulgar or obscene language. Petitioner is in custody since 26.08.2025 and has no criminal antecedent. Charge sheet has already been submitted. It has also been pointed that one of the co-accused having similar kind of allegations has been granted the privilege of anticipatory bail by a Co-ordinate Bench of this Court vide order dated 15.01.2026 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 71644 of 2025 (AnnexureP/4).
5. Learned APP for the State opposes the bail petition. However, learned counsel appearing for the Opposite Party No. 2 does not oppose the bail of the petitioner as it seems that a case has been filed on account of some misunderstanding.
6. Taking into consideration the facts and circumstances of the case and also considering the fact that the charge sheet has been submitted not requiring his further custodial interrogation, coupled with the fact that Opposite Party No. 2 also does not wish to oppose the present bail application and the petitioner undertakes to co-operate in the trial, the above named petitioner is directed to be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs10,000/- (Rupees Ten
