Mrs. Anita Kumari For the Informant :

Mr. Mithilesh Kumar Arya ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ANJANI KUMAR SHARAN ORAL ORDER 31-01-2025 Heard learned counsels for the parties.

2.

The petitioner apprehends his arrest in connection with Dhanarua P.S. Case No.352 of 2024, registered for the offence punishable under Sections 126(2), 115(2), 118(1), 103(1) and 3(5) of the BNS, 2024.

3.

As per the FIR, petitioner and other co-accused persons brutally assaulted the informant's side due to which the father of the informant sustained severe injuries and died during the course of treatment.

4.

It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that petitioner is quite innocent and has committed no offence. He has been falsely implicated in this case. No such occurrence, in the manner as alleged, has ever taken place. The allegation

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.84825 of 2024(2) dt.31-01-2025 2/2 levelled against the petitioner is not specific rather general and omnibus in nature. There is land dispute between the parties. There is also case and counter case between the parties. Petitioner has no criminal antecedent.

5.

Learned APP for the State as well as learned counsel for the informant opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail by submitting that there is specific allegation against the petitioner to assault the father of the informant due to which he died. 6.

Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case as well as considering the nature of allegation levelled against the petitioner, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. The prayer for grant of anticipatory bail on his behalf is hereby rejected.

7.

It is, accordingly, dismissed.
